Alllegro MicroSystems, LLC rolled out a new 40 V motor driver IC capable of driving one stepper motor and one DC motor. The stepper driver outputs are rated up to 1.6 A and the DC driver at 3.2 A.

Stepper motors are now being used more frequently in industrial environments. Increased performance and reduced size make them increasingly attractive, and their application is no longer limited to ...

STMicroelectronics is upping its game in power electronics with a family of motor drivers that can control the brushed DC and stepper motors at the heart of high-end industrial and consumer ...

Driving a stepper motor can be a daunting task. Whereas, providing a voltage at the terminals of a DC motor causes immediate rotation, on a stepper motor, careful magnetic field commutation must be ...
