4A Stepper Phidget (STC1005_0)

The 4A Stepper Phidget (STC1005_0) is a compact yet high-performance stepper motor controller designed to deliver up to 4A of continuous current per phase to a single bipolar stepper motor. Operating on a 10–30V DC external supply, it provides smooth and precise motion control through 1/16 microstepping.

The controller features two distinct operating modes: Step Mode, where users specify a Target Position along with Acceleration and Velocity limits, and Run Mode, which allows continuous rotation in either direction while strictly adhering to set motion parameters. Built-in electrical isolation and advanced circuit protections ensure system protection in demanding motion control setups.

Features:

• Delivers up to 4A continuous current per phase to one bipolar stepper motor
• Wide operating supply voltage range of 10V DC to 30V DC
• Microstepping support down to 1/16 step resolution for smooth motion
• Dual control modes: Step Mode (precise positioning) and Run Mode (continuous rotation)
• Programmable acceleration, velocity limits, and advanced current limiting
• Built-in electrical isolation between motor power and control circuitry
• Comprehensive protection suite: over-current, thermal, reverse polarity, supply voltage monitoring, power guard, and failsafe modes

Note: The 4A Stepper Phidget must be connected to a VINT Hub Phidget to function. External DC power supply and VINT cables are sold separately.
