- One USB port and two Bricklet ports
Details
The Stepper Brick is equipped with a 32-bit ARM microcontroller and is able to control one bipolar stepper motor with a maximum current of 2.5A and a maximum voltage of 38V per phase. The maximum driving current and the decay mode as well as steps, velocity and acceleration of the connected stepper motor can be controlled. The current consumption and power supply voltage can be measured.
It is compatible to other Tinkerforge Bricks and can be used within a stack. Two Bricklet ports can be used to extend the features of this device.
The stepper motor can be powered by an external power supply connected directly to the Brick or by the stack internal power supply. If an external power supply is connected the Brick switches automatically to this power supply.
Controlling the device is possible in several ways. You can control it via a PC connection. This connection can be established directly with a USB cable or by other cable based (RS485, Ethernet) or wireless (WIFI) connections via an additional Master Brick with corresponding Master Extension.
