On this page, I will explain about the operation principle of stepper motor.
There are many kind of stepper motors. Unipolar type, Bipolar type, Single-phase type, Multi-phase type... Single-phase stepper motor is often used for quartz watch.
On this page, I will explain the operation principle of the 2-phase unipolar PM type stepper motor.

In the PM type stepper motor, a permanent magnet is used for rotor and coils are put on stator. The stepper motor model which has 4-poles is shown in the figure on the left. In case of this motor, step angle of the rotor is 90 degrees.

As for four poles, the top and the bottom and either side are a pair. coil, coil and coil, coil correspond respectively. For example, coil and coil are put to the upper and lower pole. coil and coil are rolled up for the direction of the pole to become opposite when applying an electric current to the coil and applying an electric current to the coil. It is similar about and , too.
The turn of the motor is controlled by the electric current which pours into , , and . The rotor rotational speed and the direction of the turn can be controlled by this control.

Clockwise control
, , and are controlled in the following order.
Step angle
0 1 0 1 0°
1 0 0 1 90°
1 0 1 0 180°
0 1 1 0 270°

"0" means grounding.

Counterclockwise control
, , and are controlled in the following order.
Step angle
0 1 0 1 0°
0 1 1 0 -90°
1 0 1 0 -180°
1 0 0 1 -270°

"0" means grounding.

You can find by the figure, the rotor is stable in the middle of 2 poles of stator. When one side of the stator polarity is changed, the bounce by the magnetism occurs. As a result, the direction of rotor's turn is fixed.

The characteristic of stepper motor is the angle can be correctly controlled and to be stable rotates ( It is due to the reliability of the control signal ). Moreover, because the rotor is fixed by the magnetism in the stationary condition as shown in the principle, the stationary power(Stationary torque) is large. It suits the use to make stop at some angle.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The motor which was used this time is 48 steps and the step angle is 7.5 degrees.
The way of controlling is the same as the previous example completely. It operates when controlling the electric current of coil, coil, coil and coil.

The case of the clockwise control is shown below.
The combination of , , and repeats four patterns.

This design implements a simple stepper motor controller using a PIC16F84.

The two buttons cause the motor to rotate clockwise or anticlockwise
using a standard two-coil drive pattern.

The ULN2003A darlington driver provides the interface between the low
current PIC outputs and the stepper motor coils.

Code:

 LIST    p=16F84 ; PIC16F844 is the target processor

              #include "P16F84.INC" ; Include header file

Now, how in the world does one come up with a useful answer to that question, huh?

Why should I look hard when he's hardly looked for it himself!

Anybody please tell me how to identify the cables of a stepper motor. I mean which will be connected to which pin of which port of MCU. Also please help me how to connect some toy tires to the motor. I am not looking for a rover like thing but want to actually test whether a motor can be really tested for speed and direction. I'll be thankful for that.
