• Lab: Controlling a Stepper Motor With an H-Bridge
  This lab shows you how to set up a unipolar stepper motor using an H-Bridge.
• Lab: Controlling a Stepper Motor With a Step and Direction Driver
  Introduction In the stepper motor and H-bridge lab, you learned how to control a stepper motor with a dual H-bridge driver, specifically the TB6612FNG. This is not the only driver for controlling a stepper. Step & direction stepper drivers offer a simpler approach, from the microcontroller side. They have just two control pins, one for step ...
