There are many version of stepper motor type, also the many version of stepper motor controller design. This circuit is a general-purpose stepper motor controller that use IC TDA2030 as the driver. This circuit can be used with a wide range of operating voltages, from approximately 5 V to 18 V. It can drive the motor with a peak voltage equal to half the supply voltage, so it can easily handle stepper motors designed for voltages between 2.5 V and 9 V.
The circuit which come from Elektor Electronics Magazine (Author: Gert Baars), can also supply motor currents up to 3.5 A, which means it can be used to drive relatively large motors. The circuit is also short-circuit proof and has built-in over temperature protection. Two signals are required for driving a stepper motor. In logical terms, they constitute a Grey code, which means they are two square-wave signals with the same frequency but a constant phase difference of 90 degrees.
Stepper motors generally comes along with an IC ULN2003. This IC is used to drive motor because microcontroller pins are unable to provide sufficient current to drive these motors. There are three different types of stepping modes used for stepper motors:-Wave Drive; Full Drive; Half Drive; Wave Drive. Jan 8, 2013 - DRIVER & CONTROLLER FOR STEPPER MOTORS. Waveform can be best optimized when using a high resolution encoder or a laser.
IC1 generates a square-wave signal with a frequency that can be set using potentiometer P1. This frequency determines the rpm of the stepper motor. The Grey code is generated by a decimal counter in the form of a 4017. Outputs Q0–Q9 of the counter go high in succession in response to the rising edges of the clock signal. The Grey code can be generated from the outputs by using two OR gates, which are formed here using two diodes and a resistor for each gate, to produce the I and Q signals.
Here ‘I’ stands for ‘in-phase’ and ‘Q’ for ‘quadrature’, which means it has a 90-degree phase offset from the I signal. It is common practice to drive the windings of a stepper motor using a pair of push-pull circuits for each winding, which is called an ‘H bridge’. That makes it possible to reverse the direction of the current through each winding, which is necessary for proper operation of a bipolar motor (one whose windings do not have centre taps).
Of course, it can also be used to properly drive a unipolar motor (with centre-tapped windings). Instead of using a push-pull circuit of this sort, here we decided to use audio amplifier ICs (type TDA2030), even though that may sound a bit strange. In functional terms, the TDA2030 is actually a sort of power opamp. It has a difference amplifier at the input and a push-pull driver stage at the output.
IC3, IC4 and IC5 are all of this type (which is economically priced). Here IC3 and IC4 are wired as comparators. Their non-inverting inputs are driven by the previously mentioned I and Q signals, with the inverting inputs set to a potential equal to half the supply voltage. That potential is supplied by the third TDA2030. The outputs of IC3 and IC4 thus track their non-inverting inputs, and each of them drives one motor winding.
The other ends of the windings are in turn connected to half the supply voltage, provided by IC5. As one end of each winding is connected to a square-wave signal that alternates between 0 V and a potential close to the supply voltage, while the other end is at half the supply voltage, a voltage equal to half the supply voltage is always applied to each winding, but it alternates in polarity according to the states of the I and Q signals.
That’s exactly what we want for driving a bipolar stepper motor. The rpm can be varied using potentiometer P1, but the actual speed is different for each type of motor because it depends on the number of steps per revolution. The motor used in the prototype advanced by approximately 9° per step, and its speed could be adjusted over a range of approximately 2 to 10 seconds per revolution.
In principle, any desired speed can be obtained by adjusting the value of C1, as long as the motor can handle it. The adjustment range of P1 can be increased by reducing the value of resistor R5. The adjustment range is 1:(1000 + R5)/R5, where R5 is given in k.If a stepper motor is switched off by removing the supply voltage from the circuit, it’s possible for the motor to continue turning a certain amount due to its own inertia or the mechanical load on the motor (flywheel effect).
It’s also possible for the position of the motor to disagree with the states of the I and Q signals when power is first applied to the circuit. As a result, the motor can sometimes ‘get confused’ when starting up, with the result that it takes a step in the wrong direction before starting to move in direction defined by the drive signals. These effects can be avoided by adding the optional switch S1 and a 1-k resistor, which can then be used to start and stop the motor. When S1 is closed, the clock signal stops but IC2 retains its output levels at that moment, so the continuous currents through the motor windings magnetically ‘lock’ the rotor in position.
The TDA2030 has internal over temperature protection, so the output current will be reduced automatically if the IC becomes too hot. For that reason, it is recommended to fit IC3, IC4 and IC5 to a heat sink (possibly a shared heat sink) when a relatively high-power motor is used. The tab of the TO220 case is electrically bonded to the negative supply voltage pin, so the ICs can be attached to a shared heat sink without using insulating washers.
INTRODUCTION
A stepper motor divides full rotation into number of equal steps. It finds great application in the fields of Robotics. Today I will explain you how to interface stepper motor with STM32.
Check out the Video to see the working..
Stepper motors generally comes along with an IC ULN2003. This IC is used to drive motor because microcontroller pins are unable to provide sufficient current to drive these motors. There are three different types of stepping modes used for stepper motors:-
- Wave Drive
- Full Drive
- Half Drive
Wave Drive
In this mode only one stator electromagnet is energized at a time. It has the same number of steps as the full step drive.
Full Drive
In this mode two stator electromagnets are energized at a time and the motor runs at full torque.
Half drive
In this stepping mode, one and two phases are energized alternatively. This mode is used to increase the angular resolution of the motor but the torque is reduced.
CONNECTIONS
PA0 —-> IN1
PA1 —-> IN2
PA4 —-> IN3
PB0 —-> IN4
WORKING
Wave drive is the simplest way to drive the motor and to explain the working of the stepper motor. So I am going to use wave drive to explain how this motor works and how to program it.
According to the figure above (wave drive), we can see that in order to rotate motor we need to turn one pin HIGH at a time. This is called a step. And the combination of those 4 steps is called a sequence. For the motor to complete a full 360 degree rotation, 2048 steps are required in Wave drive and Full drive. That means we need to give 2048/4 = 512 sequences.
However in Half drive, the motor require 4096 steps. But the sequence have 8 steps now (shown in the fig above) so we need to give 4096/8 = 512 sequences.
Here is the code for wave drive
