⇒ UART Configuration : One of the most powerful aspects of the TMC2209 is its single-wire UART interface. With UART, you can configure motor current, microstepping resolution, operating modes, and ...

Bipolar stepper motors are used in many applications, from driving paper through a printer to moving an XY stage in industrial equipment. Typically, the motors are driven and controlled by inexpensive ...

A quadrature encoder provides a way to let hardware read movement (and direction) of a shaft, and they can be simple, effective, and inexpensive devices. But [Paulo Marques] observed that when it ...

“I looked at all the available rotary encoder sketches and none of them met my needs, so I have written my own, and here it is”. Well, I looked at all the available rotary encoder sketches and none of ...

It isn’t hard to imagine a scenario where you are stuck at home all day with nothing to do and certain items are in short supply. Sure, bathroom tissue gets all the press, but try buying some flour or ...

Stepper motors produce accurate, computer-controlled motion for applications such as robotic arms and paper-feed mechanisms for printers. They require current pulses delivered through a special ...

Precisely tracking speed, acceleration, and position of a motor's rotor is an essential requirement for many motor control applications found in everyday equipment such as fax machines, elevators, and ...

The article explains a laptop-based human-machine interface (HMI) system that allows users to control the speed and direction of a DC motor using software instead of physical switches or ...
