interfacing-of-stepper

A stepper motor converts electrical pulses into mechanical movements, with rotation based on the sequence, frequency, and number of input pulses. It can operate in half-step and full-step sequences, allowing for precise control of rotation angle and speed. The document also includes assembly language programs for interfacing a stepper motor with an 8051 microcontroller to achieve specific rotations.

Interfacing of Stepper-Motor

Principle of Working
A stepper motor is an electromechanical device which converts electrical pulses into
discrete mechanical movements. The shaft or spindle of a stepper motor rotates
indiscrete step increments when electrical command pulses are applied to it in the
proper sequence. The motors rotation has several direct relationships to these applied
input pulses. The sequence of the applied pulses is directly related to the direction of
motor shafts rotation. The speed of the motor shafts rotation is directly related to the
frequency of the input pulses and the length of rotation is directly related to the number
of input pulses applied.

Stepper motor can be operated in two types of sequences:


1. Half step: In this sequence single coil is energized and then both coils are
energized at the same time and motor shaft rotates. Refer figure 1 shown above.
Step Angle = 45 degree
No of steps = 8
2. Full step: In this sequence single coil is energized or both coils are energized at
the same time and motor shaft rotates. Refer figure 1 shown above.
Step Angle = 90 degree
No of steps = 4

When to use a stepper motor

 A stepper motor can be a good choice whenever controlled movement is


required.
 They can be used to get advantage in applications where you need to control
rotation angle, speed, position and synchronism.
 Because of inherent advantages listed previously, stepper motor have their place
in many different applications.
