Always look at the datasheet of your driver, before connecting power. Note that the exact specifications and dimensions can differ slightly between manufacturers. You can find more specifications in the table below.
#ARDUINO STEPPER MOTOR LIBRARY DRIVER#
The driver has several safety functions built-in like over-current, under-voltage shutdown, and overheating protection. Make sure that you do not connect stepper motors with a current rating of more than 3.5 A to the driver. With a maximum current of 3.5 A continuous, the TB6600 driver can be used to control quite large stepper motors like a NEMA 23. The TB6600 microstepping driver is built around the Toshiba TB6600HG IC and it can be used to drive two-phase bipolar stepper motors.
This library is easy to use and allows you to add acceleration and deceleration to the movement of the stepper motor. Next, we will look at the AccelStepper library. In the first example, I will show you how you can use this stepper motor driver without an Arduino library. I have included a wiring diagram and example codes. This driver is easy to use and can control large stepper motors like a 3A NEMA 23.

#ARDUINO STEPPER MOTOR LIBRARY CODE#
The code is pretty non-functional, I have been losing track of what works together in this library. I will play with these once the overarching problem of just spinning the motor has been solved. I tried to program the ability to change the speed on the fly with two additional buttons (speed increment and speed decrement). I have commented out the LCD functionality because it appears to introduce serious code hangups that cause non-smooth rotation. The motor spins indefinitely until I press the button once again, where it follows a smooth deceleration profile down to rest. Once the button is pressed, the motor spins up to speed with a very smooth acceleration profile (rates and speed easily adjustable in code). What I would like to happen: The motor sits at rest until a button is pressed. I am having trouble with the seemingly simple task of getting a stepper motor to rotate constantly with no jumps or jitters.
