Система управления шаговым двигателем на базе Arduino UNO

Abstract

This article gives information about a control system of a step motor using an Arduino UNO controller. A motor, designed as stated in the article, can be used to carry small loads and be implemented into a robotic complex. Different parts of the system are chosen in order to lower the price, maximize performance and make the system energy efficient. The system itself consists of 4 parts: a step motor, a switched mode supply, an Arduino UNO controller and a Power Driver Shield Kit. All parts are described and basic principles of their connection are explained. The most important point of the article is a functional diagram where it shown how different parts communicate with each other and which protocols are used. In the end, it is pointed out which advantages this system has and what possibilities it gives to the user.
