4.5 Other I/O

4.5.1 Stepper control outputs

The stepper control outputs are available across a range of pins, as shown in section 4.2.1.

There are four sets of stepper motor control outputs, operating in the range 0Hz to 500kHz. Each of the step (pulse) and direction signals from the NextMove ES is driven by a ULN2003 open collector Darlington output device.

The ULN2003 has a maximum power dissipation of 900mW at 25°C. The total combined output requirements of DIR0 - DIR2 and STEP0 - STEP2 must not exceed this limit. The maximum current limit for an individual output is 400mA if only one output is in use, reducing to 50mA if all outputs are in use. These limits are for a 100% duty cycle.

DIR3 and STEP3 are sourced from the same ULN2003 device as the DOUT8 - DOUT11 outputs (see section 4.4.2.2), so the current demands of these signals must also be considered.

It is recommended to use separate shielded cables for the step outputs. The shield should be connected at one end only.

CAUTION: The ULN2003 drivers are static sensitive devices. Take appropriate ESD precautions when handling the NextMove ES.
