STM32 DRIVER STEPPER MOTOR CODE
stepper.step(rotate) Ĭomplete code with Demonstration Video is given below. If rotate value is 1 it calls the function stepper one time and one move is done. rotate = Serial.parseInt() īelow code is used to call the instance and run the motor.
STM32 DRIVER STEPPER MOTOR FULL
For example we need 2048 values for one full rotation (32*64 = 2048) that is 64 will be the gear ratio and 32 will be half step sequence for one rotation.
STM32 DRIVER STEPPER MOTOR SERIAL
Stepper stepper(STEPS, PA0, PA2, PA1, PA3) īelow statement is used to get the value of steps from serial monitor. They give wrong pattern and because of that coils cant be energised. Be careful in these steps as most of them do a mistake here in this pattern. We must create instance like below to set the pins that are connected to motor. To set speed, we use tSpeed(result) We have speed range of (1-1023). int adc = analogRead( speedm ) int result = map( adc, 0, 4096, 1, 1023) Learn more about using ADC with STM32 here. Then we have converted the analog value into digital by storing those values in variable of integer type, after that we have to map the ADC values for setting speed so we use the below statement. So we must declare pin for that const int speedm = PA4 Steps per revolution = 360 / STEP ANGLEĪs we are setting speed we must take analog value from PA4 that is connected to potentiometer. We can also use Half step mode where there is 8 step sequence (360/64=5.625) stride angle. In 4 Step sequence, 4 steps are required for one complete rotation. So for one step, the shaft moves 11.25 degree that is stride angle. of steps to complete on rotation, here we use 32 because we are using Full-Step (4 Step-sequence) so (360/32 = 11.25 degree). Complete code is given at the end of the project.įirst we have to include the stepper library files #include for using stepper functions. We can proceed programming it like an Arduino. To learn about programming STM32 with Arduino IDE follow the link. Like the previous tutorial, we programmed the STM32F103C8 with Arduino IDE through USB port without using FTDI programmer.

Then manually enter steps for rotation either in clockwise (+values) or anticlockwise direction(-values) via SERIAL MONITER present in ARDUINO IDE (Tools->Serial monitor) or CTRL+SHIFT+M.Set the speed of stepper motor by varying potentiometer.The output pins (OUT1-OUT4) of ULN2003 IC are connected to the stepper motors pins (Orange, Yellow, Pink, and Blue).Ī potentiometer is used as to set speed of the stepper motor.īelow is few steps to operate the Stepper Motor: Pins (PA0 to PA3) are considered as output pins that are connected with input pins (IN1-IN4) of the ULN2003 IC. We need only four pin, we use (PA0 toPA3). Further connections for stepper motor are given below in circuit diagram section.īelow is the connections explanation for above circuit diagram.Īs we can see in the below diagram, the PWM pins are indicated in wave format (~), there are 15 such pins which can be used for pulse output to stepper motor.

COM is given Positive source voltage required for output devices. Pins (IN1 to IN7) are input pins and (OUT 1 to OUT 7) are corresponding output pins. It is used to drive the motor according to pulses received from microcontroller. Stepper motor can also be controlled without any Microcontroller, see this Stepper Motor Driver Circuit. Interfacing Stepper Motor with PIC Microcontroller.Stepper Motor Interfacing with 8051 Microcontroller.Stepper Motor Control with Raspberry Pi.Interfacing Stepper Motor with Arduino Uno.Other specifications are provided in datasheet below:Īlso check interfacing with Stepper Motor with other Microcontrollers: The motor has a 4 coil unipolar arrangement and each coil is rated for +5V hence it is relatively easy to control with any microcontrollers like Arduino ,Raspberry Pi also STM32.But we need a Motor Drive IC like ULN2003 to drive it, because stepper motors consume high current and it may damage microcontrollers.Īnother important data to notice is the Stride Angle: 5.625°/64. This means that the motor when operates in 8-step sequence will move 5.625 degree for each step and it will take 64 steps (5.625*64=360) to complete one full rotation. 28BYJ-48 is a Unipolar Stepper motor which requires 5V supply.
