Stepper 23 Click is a compact add-on board designed to drive small stepping motors in consumer electronics and industrial equipment applications. This board features the TB67S569FTG, a BiCD constant-current 2-phase bipolar stepping motor driver IC from Toshiba Semiconductor. Key features include a PWM chopper-type 2-phase bipolar drive system, high withstand voltage of up to 34V operating, and a maximum operating current of 1.8A per phase. The board also integrates safety mechanisms such as over-temperature, over-current, and low-supply voltage detection. Additional control is provided by the PCA9555A port expander via I2C, enabling functions like decay and torque modes, step resolution settings, and many more.
We provide a library for the Stepper 23 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Package can be downloaded/installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.
This library contains API for Stepper 23 Click driver.
stepper23_cfg_setup
Config Object Initialization function. stepper23_init
Initialization function. stepper23_default_cfg
Click Default Configuration function. stepper23_set_direction
This function sets the motor direction by setting the DIR pin logic state. stepper23_set_step_mode
This function sets the step mode resolution settings. stepper23_drive_motor
This function drives the motor for the specific number of steps at the selected speed. This example demonstrates the use of the Stepper 23 click board by driving the motor in both directions for a desired number of steps.
The demo application is composed of two sections :
Initializes the driver and performs the click default configuration.
Drives the motor clockwise for 200 full steps and then counter-clockiwse for 200 half
steps and 400 quarter steps with a 1 second delay on driving mode change. All data is being logged on the USB UART where you can track the program flow.
The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Additional notes and informations
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. UART terminal is available in all MikroElektronika compilers.
