Questions tagged [stepper]

Software for managing microcontroller input and output for controlling stepper motor hardware; To be used together with the platform tag.

Steppers are very precise motors that give a very precise control on their rotation. The full rotation is divided into steps and the driver circuit of the motor allows to execute commands that precisely move the motor by a given number of steps, in a given direction and at given speed.

Use this tag exclusively for software-related questions such as:

  • stepper control code
  • libraries controlling steppers
  • producing/processing I/O related to steppers

Use this tag in combination with the hardware environment, such as or .
