First off, what's the difference between a Stepper Motor Controller and Driver, or is there even one?
Secondly, I'm looking to make a relatively inexpensive controller for 3 motors. It has to be able to drive 3 motors simultaneously in both rotational directions, and has to connect to a PC in some manner for controlling. I was looking at one over on Instructables that seems to be pretty good. Link: Easy to build CNC Mill Stepper Motor and Driver circuits
So my questions are...
1) Is that a good controller? Any modifications need to be made?
2) Is there a better controller I can make for the price?
Thanks.
