STEP MOTOR DRIVER
A step motor driver is a device that takes input
signals (usually Clock and Direction) and
translates this information into phase currents in
the motor. Each time the step motor driver
receives a pulse, the step motor moves one
step. If the driver receives 200 pulses, the
motor moves 200 steps. The motor steps at the
same frequency as the clock pulses.
