ABSTRACT:
A stepping motor control circuit permitting selective operation of the motor in various modes such as half or full step mode. The circuit includes a pulse generator producing pulses at a selected motor step rate. A switch means selects the step size while a second switch selects the motor direction. An up/down counter counts pulses from the pulse generator in a direction correlated with the selected rotation direction. A read-only-memory is addressed as a function of the periodically repeating count in the up/down counter and the selected step size. The stored information at the addressed read-only-memory location actuates motor drive circuitry which generates energizing signals for the motor windings to drive the motor in the selected direction a distance corresponding to the selected step size at a step rate equal to the pulse rate of the pulse generator.
