Microstepping a stepper motor with the SLA7062 (2011x38)

Data de estreia: Out 19, 2011

http://www.techkits.com/kits/index.htm#sla7062 Stepper motors can be made to rotate more smoothly by providing simulated sine waves. The SLA7062 chip uses internal PWM to provide sinusoidal current waveforms to unipolar stepper motors. I have this working fairly well, but the PWM frequency is acoustically apparent and annoying.
