Beautiful 6 Wire Stepper Motor L298
5 5 in1 6 5v ena 7 4 in2 8 gnd gnd hook to both power supply gnd and arduino gnd.
6 wire stepper motor l298. By energizing these electromagnetic coils in a specific sequence the shaft of a stepper can be moved forward or backward precisely in small steps. L298n dual h bridge motor controller module various models will work male to female jumper wires. Information about the l298n motor driver.
Pin number on l298n pin on arduino function 1 sensea. With this motor driver you can control dc motors stepper motors relays and solenoids. This is because of the way stepper motors are made stepper motors will have two coils and since this motor has six wires that means there are 3 wires per coil.
The model in the example i am using is from ebay. It comes with two separate channels called a and b that you can use to drive 2 dc motors or 1 stepper motor when combined. You don t have to spend a lot of money to control motors with an arduino or compatible board.
What we need to do is measure the resistance from one motor wire to another. As l298n module has two h bridges each h bridge will drive one of the electromagnetic coils of a stepper motor. After some hunting around we found a neat motor control module based on the l298n h bridge ic that can allows you to control the speed and direction of two dc motors or control one bipolar stepper motor with ease.
An arduino any flavor. It is a high voltage and high current full dual bridge driver designed to accept standard ttl logic level and drive inductive loads such as relays solenoids and dc stepper motor. Quick and simple start guide for using and exploring an l298n dual h bridge motor controller module with an arduino.
The l298n h bridge module can be used with motors that have a voltage of between 5. A dc power supply 7 35v. Most stepper motors come with four six or eight wires.
