Introduction
I wanted to put down my latest thoughts on the stepper motor information that I’ve
gathered up. Obviously there is a bunch of stuff attached, but I think it should help move
us forward.
General Stepper Motor Info
There is a tutorial available on the we called, “Control of Stepping Motors, a tutorial”
which is available athttp://www.cs.uiowa.edu/~jones/step/index.html. It seems to deal
with the physics of the device in great detail. Also there’s a good reference at Wirz
(http://www.wirz.com/stepper/index.html) that has a good discussion about positioning.
I’ve attached some other relevant info as follows:

Stepper Motor 5,6 and 8 Lead Descriptions
DIY KIT 109 STEPPER MOTOR DRIVER
Stepper motors can be used in a wide variety of hobby
applications: searchlights on small boats & cars, video
camera positioning, radio antenna control, controls
operating through waterproof housing, telescope control
where the azimuth, elevation & focus must be varied
independently, moving table positioning. In these
applications what is required is one or both of a
continuous stepping at varying speeds and a single
stepping, fine control to get the final position.
This kit is a stepper motor driver for 5, 6 & 8 lead
unipolar stepper motors. These are the most common
types today on the surplus market. The older four lead
bipolar stepper motors are not supported by this kit.
Visual indication that a pulse has gone to the stepper
motor is provided by 4 LED’s, one connected to each of
the four coils in the motor. (This may be very useful if
you cannot see the motor and want to be sure that it has
stepped.) The direction of stepping can be changed by a
switch. Three stepping modes are possible.
The kit uses an IC especially designed to drive 6 lead
unipolar stepper motors, the UCN5804B. As will be
shown the 5 and 8 lead steppers can be configured into a
6 lead pattern. The data sheet for this IC is included. The
various features of this IC are brought out to 5 SPDT
switches on the PCB. This kit was designed using Protel
for DOS.
ASSEMBLY
Check the components against the Component listing.
Make sure you identify C1, the 474 monoblok. It looks
just the same as C2 C4 & C6 which are 104 monobloks
with the same pitch. Note there are four links to go on the
board. One of the links goes under an IC socket. Make
sure the flat on the four LED’s corresponds to the bar
shown on the overlay. They all face right. It is generally
best to solder the lowest height components into the board
first. We have included a 6-pin header to make the
connection of the stepper motor to the PCB easier.
Motor Identification.
This is straight forward because the number of wires
coming out of the motor identifies it. Bipolar motors
have 4 leads coming out of them. One winding is on each
stator pole. These motors are not supported by this kit.
They were common in the late 1980’s and many kits using
discrete components were built to support them.
Unipolar motors may have 5 leads but generally have 6
or 8 wires. In all the motors we have seen, the wires for
the 6 & 8 types come out in two bundles of 3 or 4 wires
resp. Unipole steppers have two coils per stator pole. In
the 8 lead motors the 2 leads from the 2 coils from both
stators emerge from the motor. In the 6 lead motors the
two coils on each stator pole are joined (opposite sense)
together before they emerge from the motor. In the 5 lead
motors each of the two joined wires are themselves joined
before they leave the motor.
In the 6 wire version a multimeter (set it to 200ohm
resistance range) will show which is the centre lead within
each group of 3 leads. Typically the resistance between
the centre lead to the other two will be about 40 ohms
while the resistance between the outer two leads will be
twice that. Call the outer two leads in each of the two
bunches of wires A & B,
C & D. Solder them into
those positions on the
PCB. The centre lead in
each bunch is the power
lead & goes into the pad
marked +. Note that it
does not matter which
way around the A/B, C/D
leads go onto the pads.
5 wire version. Note that both + pads on the PCB are
connected together. In the 5 wire motor these centre leads
are connected internally.
So to power a 5 lead
stepper just connect the
common centre tap lead
from both phases to one of
the + pads. The A/B, C/D
leads are connected just as
in the 6 lead motors.
8 wire version. In each
bunch of 4 leads find the 2 pairs of wires connected to
each phase of the motor. Take one of each and join them
together. This is now the common lead to connect to the +
pad just as in the 6 lead case. The remaining leads are A
& B and C & D to the PCB..
Now there are 1, possibly
2, complications. First the
common connection must
join the coils in the
opposite sense. This refers
to the way in which they
are wound. This means
that the dot on one coil is
joined to the no-dot end
on the other coil in the
diagram. There is no way to tell the sense of the coils
unless you have the motor winding colour specification
which for surplus motors is generally missing. So you just
have to try it. Now if the wires are colour coded the same
in both bundles this is just a matter of two possibilities to
try. If the wires are not colour coded then there are four
possibilities. You will not damage the motor during this
testing if connections are wrong. The motor will either not
work or oscillate to and fro when the power is connected.
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
We have designed the kit so that the stepper motor can be
run continuously at a fast or low stepping rate then, when
it nears the desired position, it can be switched to

single step mode and manually pulsed into final position.
Another switch controls the direction. A third switch can
turn the IC off and any power to the motor is removed.
Two other switches bring out halfstep and one phase
control modes supported by the IC.
A 555 IC is configured to deliver a continuous stream of
pulses to pin 11 of the 5804. The frequency is determined
by the values of the potentiometer and C1. Alternatively,
the single step switch allows individual pulses to be
delivered manually to the 5804 using a tact switch. A
switch debounce circuit is present using R4 & C5. LED’s
are included on the output of the 5804 to show which
phases of the motor are powered.
The Driver. The 5804 stepper driver is one of those
marvellous devices that replaces a handful of discrete
components. The driver will operate motors at up to 35V
and 1.25A. The step input is to pin 11 and direction goes
to pin 14. Pins 9 and 10 control one phase and half step
operation, respectively. Ref. 6 shows how to drive the IC
direct from a computer.
Motor Movement.
To make the motor step, power is applied to each coil in
turn. The 4 windings have to be energised in the right
sequence. Steppers have three different stepping methods:
wave, two phase & half-step. This is because there are
three basic patterns of energising the coils to make them
move. The last two are the most efficient. These patterns
are given in the data sheet on the 5804. No more than 2
coils are on at any one time.
In wave drive (or one phase operation) only one coil is
on at any time. In two phase drive two coils are always
on. In halfstep drive the number of coils energised cycles
between 1 & 2. We will not go into the details here since
they are given every year or so in the hobby electronics
magazines and in text books. Two of the best write-ups
starting from basics are references 2, 4 and 5 below. You
can see the pattern of coils being turned on/off by looking
at the LED’s as the motor steps.
As the motor is spinning, try varying the supply voltage.
This will make the motor run more roughly or smoothly.
Stepping motors are very sensitive to supply voltage
variations.
If you want the RUN stepping rate to be slower then
replace the 1M potentiometer by a 5M or even 10M pot.
What to do if it does not work
If there are more than 2 LED’s on then there is a short
circuit on the output of the 5804. Check that all the 4 links
are added to the board. Check the 555 IC is in the correct
way.
Ballast or Forcing Resistor
For two reasons a low value (typically 20 to 60 ohm), 5W
or 10W cement resistor is sometimes included in both the
+ lines between the 5804 and the stepper motor.
Lenz’s Law. Voltage driving gets into a time constant
problem (L/R) which limits speed & power. If R is
increased then the time constant is reduced. However, for
hobby applications it does not matter if the time constant
is 50msec or 10 msec.
Current Limiting. The resistor helps to limit current to
the motor. This is to help reduce overheating when it is
stopped (not stepping) but the power is still connected to
it to maintain its position.
External Diodes. These are mentioned in the data sheet
on the 5804 as possibly being necessary. However, for the
hobby stepper motors we are discussing here they are not
required.

Experiment #26: Stepper Motor Control
Behind The Scenes
Stepper motors differ from standard DC motors in that they do not spin freely when power is applied.
For a stepper motor to rotate, the power source must be continuously pulsed in specific patterns.
The step sequence (pattern) determines the direction of the stepper’s rotation. The time between
sequence steps determines the rotational speed. Each step causes the stepper motor to rotate a fixed
angular increment. The stepper motor supplied with the StampWorks kit rotates 3.6 degrees per
step. This means that one full rotation (360 degrees) of the stepper requires 100 steps.
The step sequences for the motor are stored in DATA statements. The StepFwd subroutine will read
the next sequence from the table to be applied to the coils. The StepRev subroutine is identical
except that it will read the previous step. Note the trick with the modulus (//) operator used in
StepRev. By adding the maximum value of the sequence to the current value and then applying the
modulus operator, the sequence goes in reverse. Here’s the math:

This experiment reads both sides of the 10K potentiometer to determine its relative position. The
differential value between the two readings is kept positive by using the ABS function. The position is
used to determine the rotational direction and the strength of the position is used to determine the
rotational speed. Remember, the shorter the delay between steps, the faster the stepper will rotate.
A dead-band check is used to cause the motor to stop rotating when the RCTIME readings are nearly
equal.

Basic Stamp I Stepper Controller
BASIC Stamp I Application Notes
6: A Serial Stepper Controller
Introduction. This application note demonstrates simple hardware
and software techniques for driving and controlling common four-coil
stepper motors.
Background. Stepper motors translate digital switching sequences
into motion. They are used in printers, automated machine tools, disk
drives, and a variety of other applications requiring precise motions
under computer control.
Unlike ordinary dc motors, which spin freely when power is applied,
steppers require that their power source be continuously pulsed in
specific patterns. These patterns, or step sequences, determine the
speed and direction of a stepper’s motion. For each pulse or step input,
the stepper motor rotates a fixed angular increment; typically 1.8 or 7.5
degrees.
The fixed stepping angle gives steppers their precision. As long as the
motor’s maximum limits of speed or torque are not exceeded, the
controlling program knows a stepper’s precise position at any given
time.
Steppers are driven by the interaction (attraction and repulsion) of
magnetic fields. The driving magnetic field “rotates” as strategically
placed coils are switched on and off. This pushes and pulls at permanent magnets arranged around the edge of a rotor that drives the output

shaft. When the on-off pattern of the magnetic fields is in the proper
sequence, the stepper turns (when it’s not, the stepper sits and quivers).
The most common stepper is the four-coil unipolar variety. These are
called unipolar because they require only that their coils be driven on
and off. Bipolar steppers require that the polarity of power to the coils
be reversed.
The normal stepping sequence for four-coil unipolar steppers appears
in figure 2. There are other, special-purpose stepping sequences, such
as half-step and wave drive, and ways to drive steppers with multiphase analog waveforms, but this application concentrates on the
normal sequence. After all, it’s the sequence for which all of the
manufacturer’s specifications for torque, step angle, and speed apply.

Figure 2. Normal stepping sequence.
If you run the stepping sequence in figure 2 forward, the stepper rotates
clockwise; run it backward, and the stepper rotates counterclockwise.
The motor’s speed depends on how fast the controller runs through the
step sequence. At any time the controller can stop in mid sequence. If it
leaves power to any pair of energized coils on, the motor is locked in
place by their magnetic fields. This points out another stepper motor
benefit: built-in brakes.
Many microprocessor stepper drivers use four output bits to generate
the stepping sequence. Each bit drives a power transistor that switches
on the appropriate stepper coil. The stepping sequence is stored in a
lookup table and read out to the bits as required.
This design takes a slightly different approach. First, it uses only two
output bits, exploiting the fact that the states of coils 1 and 4 are always
Page 100 • BASIC Stamp Programming Manual 1.9 • Parallax, Inc.
6: A Serial Stepper Controller
BASIC Stamp I Application Notes
the inverse of coils 2 and 3. Look at figure 2 again. Whenever coil 2 gets
a 1, coil 1 gets a 0, and the same holds for coils 3 and 4. In Stamp designs,
output bits are too precious to waste as simple inverters, so we give that
job to two sections of the ULN2003 inverter/driver.
The second difference between this and other stepper driver designs is
that it calculates the stepping sequence, rather than reading it out of a
table. While it’s very easy to create tables with the Stamp, the calculations required to create the two-bit sequence required are very simple.
And reversing the motor is easier, since it requires only a single
additional program step. See the listing.
How it works. The stepper controller accepts commands from a terminal or PC via a 2400-baud serial connection. When power is first applied
to the Stamp, it sends a prompt to be displayed on the terminal screen.
The user types a string representing the direction (+ for forward, – for
backward), number of steps, and step delay (in milliseconds), like this:
step>+500 20
As soon as the user presses enter, return, or any non-numerical character at the end of the line, the Stamp starts the motor running. When the
stepping sequence is over, the Stamp sends a new step> prompt to the
terminal. The sample command above would take about 10 seconds
(500 x 20 milliseconds). Commands entered before the prompt reappears are ignored.

translate the color code. Connect the stepper and give it a try. If it
vibrates instead of turning, you have one or more coils connected
incorrectly. Patience and a little experimentation will prevail.

The ULN2001A, ULN2002A, ULN2003A, ULN2004A, ULQ2003A, and ULQ2004A are monolithic high-voltage,
high-current Darlington transistor arrays. Each consists of seven npn Darlington pairs that feature high-voltage
outputs with common-cathode clamp diodes for switching inductive loads. The collector-current rating of a
single Darlington pair is 500 mA. The Darlington pairs may be paralleled for higher current capability.
Applications include relay drivers, hammer drivers, lamp drivers, display drivers (LED and gas discharge), line
drivers, and logic buffers. For 100-V (otherwise interchangeable) versions, see the SN75465 through SN75469.
The ULN2001A is a general-purpose array and can be used with TTL and CMOS technologies. The ULN2002A
is specifically designed for use with 14- to 25-V PMOS devices. Each input of this device has a zener diode and
resistor in series to control the input current to a safe limit. The ULN2003A and ULQ2003A have a 2.7-kΩ series
base resistor for each Darlington pair for operation directly with TTL or 5-V CMOS devices. The ULN2004A and
ULQ2004A have a 10.5-kΩ series base resistor to allow operation directly from CMOS devices that use supply
voltages of 6 to 15 V. The required input current of the ULN/ULQ2004A is below that of the ULN/ULQ2003A,
and the required voltage is less than that required by the ULN2002A.
