Microcontroller Program to Control Stepper Motor

Microcontroller Program to Control Stepper Motor

Combining the key input program, we designed a functional program: Pressing the number keys 1 to 9 controls the motor to rotate 1 to 9 circles; using the up and down keys changes the rotation direction, pressing the up key rotates forward 1 to 9 circles, while the down key rotates backward 1 to 9 … Read more

Design of Multi-Degree-of-Freedom Robotic Arm Based on ARM

Design of Multi-Degree-of-Freedom Robotic Arm Based on ARM

Abstract:The robotic arm uses ARM chips as the control core, mainly due to its strong computing power, rich peripheral interfaces, and the ability to expand into various interfaces such as serial, parallel, high-speed, and low-speed. It can also easily expand into network interfaces, facilitating collaborative work of robotic arms. In particular, the LCD interface and … Read more

Its appearance has almost no exposed screw heads (except for the center of the hands), making the … Read more

Working Principle and Driving Methods of Stepper Motors

Working Principle and Driving Methods of Stepper Motors

What is a Stepper Motor? A stepper motor is a type of motor that converts electrical pulse signals into corresponding angular displacement or linear displacement. For a stepper motor, each input pulse signal causes the rotor to rotate by a certain angle or take a step forward. The output angular displacement or linear displacement is … Read more
