Power Step Click designed for high-power stepper motor control in industrial applications

Achieve accurate and efficient control of high-power two-phase bipolar stepper motors with the A4989SLD

 

Power Step Click is a compact add-on board designed for control of high-power two-phase bipolar stepper motors in industrial applications. It is based on the A4989SLD gate driver with integrated microstepping translator from Allegro Microsystems.

 

KEY FEATURES:
 

  • High-Power Stepper Motor Control: Specifically designed for two-phase bipolar stepper motors
  • External N-Channel MOSFETs: Enables delivery of high motor currents up to 20A
  • Wide Supply Voltage Range: Supports motor supply voltages from 12V to 35V
  • Microstepping Translator: Supports full-, half-, quarter-, and sixteenth-step resolutions
  • Simple STEP/DIR Interface: Achieves easy control of motor movement
  • Programmable Decay Modes: Offers slow, mixed, and fast decay modes for current regulation
  • Selectable Synchronous Rectification Mode: Improves efficiency and reduces power dissipation

 

APPLICATIONS:
 

  • Controls stepper motors in industrial automated production lines and equipment
  • Provides precise control for CNC milling machines, lathes, and other tools
  • Drives stepper motors in robotic arms, grippers, and mobile platforms
  • Used for precise control of 3D printer movements
  • Controls high-power stepper motor-based actuators
  • Any application requiring accurate and efficient high-power stepper motor control

ABOUT CLICK BOARDS™

Click boards™ follow a modular prototyping add-on board standard invented by MIKROE, which revolutionizes the way users add new functionalities to development boards. Click boards™ enable design engineers to change peripherals easily, cutting months off development time. To enable hundreds of Click board to be connected to the microcontroller or microprocessor, we have invented the socket standard - mikroBUS™. This uniform connection interface allows you to connect any Click board to a main board instantly. The company releases a new Click board nearly every day at 10am, and many leading microcontroller companies including Microchip, NXP, Infineon, Dialog, STM, Analog Devices, Renesas, and Toshiba now include the mikroBUS™ socket on their development boards.

ABOUT MIKROE

MIKROE is committed to changing the embedded electronics industry through the use of time-saving industry-standard hardware and software solutions. With unique concepts like Remote Access, One New Product/Day, Multi-Architectural IDE and most recently, the EmbeddedWiki™ platform with more than million ready-for-use projects, MIKROE combines its dev boards, compilers, smart displays, programmers/debuggers and 1800+ Click peripheral boards to dramatically cut development time. mikroBUS™; mikroSDK™; SiBRAIN™ and DISCON™ are open standards and mikroBUS only has been adopted by over 100 leading microcontroller companies and integrated on their development boards.
