Saa1027 Stepper Motor Drivers For Mac
T65 3A STEPPER MOTOR DRIVERS FOR MAC - The full version supports all key sizes,,, and includes a complete testbench. Therefore the core has been developed with features a system with operative system will benefit from.
So I gutted an old printer last night and found a few rods, motors and gears for my parts stockpile. I started typing motor details into Google and identified the one as being a 12V stepper, but the datasheet is very limited.
From the 6 pins I realized it has to be a Unipolar motor. I started testing the resistances between the pins and realised that the 2 centre taps are connected together.

A stepper motor is a type of synchronous brushless motor in that it does not have an armature with a commutator and carbon brushes but has a rotor made up of many, some types have hundreds of permanent magnetic teeth and a stator with individual windings.
Since my driver has a H-Bridge I need a Bipolar configuration and started investating if the two centre taps are joined internally of externally. Attachments. The major question I have at this point is whether I can disregard the two center tap pins using only the two major coils.
Coil A of 8.1 Ohm between Pin 1 and Pin 2. Coil B of 8.1 Ohm between Pin 5 and Pin 6.
Looking at the datasheet, I get the impression that the motor won't draw serious current with a 12V supply (rated around 230mA), but using Ohm's law, I calculate that an 8 Ohm load will draw 1.5A of current from a 12V supply. I really hope that my calculations are wrong since my driver can handle current ratings up to 2A, but I'm not planning to configure the Current Sensing and Chopper parts of the circuits, so it might get a bit hairy if I run at around 1.5A. Any Comments?
See the schematic I'm planning to implement and please let me know if you think I'm creating fire-lighters in stead of a stepper driver.? Ah the joys of driving stepper motors, I know them well. To run a little motor like you have in this article I wouldn't have chosen a 297/298 solution. Today I'm not sure what I'd choose to use a 297/298 for. Why did you pick those antique chips?
The only reason I can think of is there are a lot of data about them on the Internet today. Electrically they are many generations out of date now though. They were hot stuff about 20 years ago but today you can do better. I picked up some little driver ICs that would run those printer motors you have.
They're good for 350ma per phase. Which I like to think of as the modern replacements for the classic SAA1027 as those are very difficult to purchase at a reasonable price today. Still popular with the telescope crowd because of the projects on the net that use them. But in reality a total rip off for what they are. I know this is a build it yourself project site but when it comes to stepper motor drivers I'm not sure how to rationalize that decision today. I put up I built here, but I advise people to skip trying to build them themselves and just buy drivers for whatever project they happen to be working on.
It is cheaper. I'm in no way affiliated with this website, but they seem to have some interesting products to me: There is still plenty of opportunity to do some building with what they offer, but they do some of the heavy lifting for you. Note how they do not say they are selling drivers, so much as carriers. Which is a more honest, but slightly confusing description.
You could run a single stepper motor off of one of their boards, but you couldn't really integrate it into a multi motor system without some thought to noise suppression I don't think. The other hot on the cheap product out there today is the imported drivers that use the same driver IC I did, the TB6560AHQ. Picking up 3 axis drivers for $22? That is a tough act to beat for what is effectively a plug it in and go solution. Anyhow if you decide to press ahead with your 297/298 project good luck to you. I'm sure you'll learn a lot in the process. It will be a costly education for you in terms of finances and time though.
I further question the ultimate outcome of it. I mean the best a 297/297 driver can do is half stepping. That is pretty rough by today's standards. Aren't those chips bipolar technology, like the transistors in them too?
Driving a bi-polar stepping motor with the SAA 1027 Driving a uni-polar stepper motor with the SAA 1027 stepper motor driver I found the SAA 1027 IC in my junk box and thought it would make an interesting project. It is a fairly early and hence simple chip. It drives the stopper motor in only one mode and the only control functions available are direction and reset. This has of course some advantages, because it means that - ignoring the reset - the stepper motor can be driven using only two output lines. If one were to use the analogue outputs as well as the digital outputs, 5 stepper motors could be controlled using just one Velleman interface board. The circuit diagram below shows the simplicity of the set-up. Notice pin 4.
The resistor connected to it determines the base current of the driver transistors and it should be adjusted to fit the type of motor you use. Be also aware that the SAA 1027 only starts working at around 8V, so 6V stepper motors are out of the question. Additionally, the motor will always draw power - there is no way to shut the power off while the rotor is stationary. Apart from this, the circuit works well and uses only two output lines. Suggested PCB layout. The Velleman side is on the left and motor and power connections on the right. The program Because the SAA1027 does most of the work, programming the project is simplicity itself.
The motor is driven by lines 420 to 430 which are of course in a continous loop. 420 SYS K8055SetDigitalChannel%,8 430 FOR J%=1 TO Sp%.Speed%:NEXT 440 SYS K8055ClearDigitalChannel%,8 This sets Port 8 high, wastes some time and then sets the port low again. The SAA 1027 does all the rest.

The length of time wasted determines the speed of rotation. Change of direction is done by lines 300 and 310, which simply set output line either high or low. 300 IF Dir$='left' SYS K8055SetDigitalChannel%,7 310 IF Dir$='right' SYS K8055ClearDigitalChannel%,7 As usual, there is a zip file with the BASIC code and an executable file which allows you to use the program without installing BBC4W. 10 REM K8055SAA1027 20 REM Control one stepper motor with the Velleman K8055 interface board and a SAA1027 IC 30 REM Jochen Lueg 40 REM 50 REM Limavady, June 2012 60 REM Version 1.0 70 80 ON ERROR PROCerror 90 PROCK8055init 100 PROCinit 110 ON CLOSE PROCclose 120 PROCwindow(680,300,'SAA 1027 driver') 130 OFF 140 SYS K8055CloseDevice%,0 150 SYS K8055OpenDevice%,0 160 170 PRINT 180 PRINT 190 PRINT ' Left - Stop - Right.
