The EVK comes in 15 different variants for stepper motor driver ICs – from standard, micro step, low voltage to high voltage. This comprehensive solution covers supply voltages from 8 to 42V, enables up to 2.5A per phase, as well as micro-stepping and single- or multi-phase control of one or two stepper motors.
The kit is suited to drive bipolar stepper motors available in a range of supply voltages and current capabilities.
It drives with CLK-IN or PARA-IN variants and is said to provide high efficiency, easier power control and comprehensive protection functionalities in a robust and compact design, enabling accurate fine-tuning of the motor performances. Designed to be stackable, a second shield can be added on top to drive two motors.
The ‘easy to adapt’ kit is supplied with a software library, an extensive user guide and example programs to facilitate a rapid learning curve. BOM and Gerber-based PCB layouts are also provided.
