Can i make an arduino powered robot with stepper motors. Using stepper motors for wheeled robot propulsion servo magazine. I use the same voltage regulator to power the stepper motor driver. In this arduino tutorial we will learn how to control a stepper motor using the a4988 stepper driver. You must either use one of the stepper motor driver ics available, or simply use power transistors or mosfets for driving the stepper motor directly. Stepper motors with arduino getting started with stepper motors.
Im powering the pololu stepper motor driver board with a 12v battery and the arduino board with a 1a 12v power supply. Its working functionality depends when we attach the bluetooth module and it receives the given command which is given by the android smart phone application and the connected arduino detects the command and then it controls the motor rotation with a motor driver board l298n motor driver module. For its assembly, you will need two stepper motors with 200 steps per. You must either use one of the stepper motor driver ics available, or simply use power transistors or mosfets for.
