Table 2 shows the relative current and step directions for different settings of MODEx. At each rising edge of the
STEP input, the indexer travels to the next state in the table. The direction is shown with the DIR pin high; if the
DIR pin is low the sequence is reversed. Positive current is defined as xOUT1 = positive with respect to xOUT2.
Note that if the step mode is changed while stepping, the indexer will advance to the next valid state for the new
MODEx setting at the rising edge of STEP.
The home state is 45°. This state is entered at power-up or application of nRESET. This is shown in Table 2 by
the shaded cells. The logic inputs DIR, STEP, nRESET, and MODEx have internal pulldown resistors of 100 kΩ.
