Mikroelektronika MIKROE-3214 DRV8886 Bipolar Stepper Motor Driver with Current Sensing

Technical description of the product (MIKROE-3214):

The MIKROE-3214 DRV8886 is a bipolar stepper motor driver with current sensing, 1:16 microstepping, I2C, GPIO, SPI, 5V, and 3.3V. Stepper 6 click is a complete integrated bipolar stepper motor driver solution. It comes with an abundance of features that allow silent operation and optimal working conditions for the connected motor. A specialized integrated driver chip on this Click board™ far exceeds the capabilities of similar, commonly used stepper motor drivers. It comes in a package which also includes the mikroSDK™ software, and a library with all the functions. The Click board™ comes as a fully tested and approved prototype, making it a reliable device ready to use on the development board. Stepper 6 click is a perfect solution for any application that requires an efficient and reliable motor driver. It can be used in 3D printers, laser printers, laser engravers, video security cameras, factory automation, robotics, and other similar applications. Type: Stepper. Applications: A perfect solution for building various applications that require precise and reliable stepper motor control, such as the movement control of beds, heads, and assemblies of various CNC plotting, milling and 3D printer designs, industrial automation, security cameras.
