Can somebody please tell me what type of motor is this? I think it is a stepper.
What type of motor driver to be used with such motor??
It's not from printer, friend; it's from a CD-RW drive...
Brushless DC motor.
Isn't it?
But why four connectors?
It was supposed to be just two. Not that?
To Mickster; can you please gimme the datasheet.
Also suggest me the simplest controller.
What is the pinout of the connectors??
You use the table depicted in the datasheet, to energise the coils in the correct sequence for the desired motor direction.How can I get continous rotation out of that.

...CD drive manufacturers like to use their brushless motors...
