STEPPER MOTOR INTERFACING A stepper motor is a digital motor. It can be driven by digital signal. Fig.

shows the typical 2 phase motor rated 12V /0.67 A/ph inter aced with the !0!" microprocessor system #sing !2"". $otor shown in the circ#it has two phases% with center&tap winding. 'he center taps o these windings are connected to the 12V s#pply. (#e to this% motor can be e)cited by gro#nding o#r terminals o the two windings. $otor can be rotated in steps by giving proper e)citation se*#ence to these windings. 'he lower nibble o port A o the !2"" is #sed to generate e)citation signals in the proper se*#ence. 'hese e)citation signals are b# ered #sing driver transistors. 'he transistors are selected s#ch that they can so#rce rated c#rrent or the windings. $otor is rotated by 1.!0 per e)citation.
