Experimental instructions Experiments with the stepping board

Note: The document cannot be used without suitable hardware.

The "Experiments on the Stepping Board" experiment guide covers the following topics:

Introduction

• General information
• How does the rotary movement occur?
• Which measure causes smaller step angles?
• Structure of the electromagnets in the stator
• Special problems of controlling stepper motors
• The control electronics
• The power electronics
• Microstepping operation, sinusoidal operation

Stepping board

• The step sequence using the example of unipolar operation
• Measurements on the internal structure of the stepper motor
• Measurements on the electrical inner workings of the stepper motor

Stepping board and Digiboard (type 3600.1)

• Motor operation with a fixed number of steps
• Translator for full-step operation with shift register
• Translator for full-step operation with synchronous counter

Stepping board and power board (type 5125)

• Stepper motor operation with sinusoidal current
• Speed and rotational frequency with sinusoidal motor current
