Stepper motors are commonly seen in two or four phase designs, but Astrosyn International Technology has launched an advanced three phase motor with driver. The three phase layout enables the stepper ...

Over the last two decades, stepping motors (or step motors) have increasingly been applied in electronic-control applications throughout all segments of the electronics industry. Its simplicity of ...

The [Denki Otaku] YouTube channel took a look recently at some stepper motors, or ‘stepping motors’ as they’re called in Japanese. Using a 2-phase stepper motor as an example, the stepper motor is ...

Stepper motors are increasingly important for positioning tasks in automated systems due to their compact size, cost ...

Stepper motor systems are highly efficient when producing torque, but lack operational efficiency when not producing torque. Applied Motion Products offers insights on how to make a greener and more ...

Stepper motors resemble servo motors in that both types are characterized by an ability to rotate a partial turn and then stop for any interval with or without holding torque. In addition, both motor ...

Toshiba has introduced a bipolar driver for two-phase stepping motors up to 44V 5A that includes 1/128 micro-stepping. TB67S128FTG, as it is to be known, also supports full, half, quarter, 1/8, 1/16, ...

Toshiba Electronics Europe has introduced a new stepper motor driver integrated circuit, the TB67S579FTG, featuring its next‑generation Advanced Microstep Technology aimed at improving efficiency, ...

When you think about highly-precise actuators, stepper motors probably aren’t the first device that comes to mind. However, as [Diffraction Limited]’s sub-micron capable micro-manipulator shows, they ...
