ABSTRACT:
A stepper motor controller circuit is described. The circuit comprises four power transistors configured to drive current in either direction through a stepper motor winding. A series resistor senses instantaneous current and a chopper is used to limit this current to some predetermined maximum value. Eight diodes protect the circuit against reverse, current surges, and a flip-flop guarantees a minimum duty cycle.
