Stepper motors, operation and control Stepper motors can be divided mainly in two categories: those with permanent magnet and those with variable reluctance. The former consist of a main rotor, usually cylindrical, polarized and placed between stators on which some bobbins are wrapped (...)

Types of PWM control There are basically two types of PWM: the phase chopping and the inhibition chopping. The former acts only upon one of the stepper's A,B,C and D inputs, whereas the latter acts upon all (...)

PWM Control Techniques To control the current load on the bobbins of a motor (and, consequently, the field they generate), various techniques can be used; it is possible for example to commutate power continuously to the bobbin between two voltages, or, if power to the bobbin is a square wave, its frequency can be changed (...)
