Learn how to interface a microcontroller with a stepper motor in your electronic engineering project, using Arduino as an example. Choose, connect, program, and troubleshoot the components.

Circuit and working Fig. 2 shows the circuit diagram of the predictive failure control system for stepper motors. It is built around an Arduino Uno board (MOD1), an encoder (MOD2), a temperature ...

At it’s heart, it’s a straightforward design, using a linear rail and a leadscrew driven by a stepper motor. Control is via an Arduino Nano, with a few push buttons and a 16 x 2 LCD display ...
