Overview
Dual stepper motor driver shield can drive 2 stepper motors at the same time by Arduino. It can work with the power supply from 4.75V to 30V. High accuracy controlling can be supported by Arduino for CNC milling machine.
Features
- Dual step motor driver design for Cartesian coordinate system
- ±750mA, 5-30V output rating
- Automatic current-decay mode detection/selection
- 3.0 to 5.5V logic supply voltage range
- Mixed, fast and slow current-decay modes
- Internal UVLO and thermal shutdown circuitry
- Crossover-current protection

Installation
Dual step motor driver shield can drive 2 step motors (4 wires 2 direction) at the same time. On dual step motor driver shield, there is a setting group for micro-step resolution. They can be set by the hardware jumper, and set by pins of Arduino or other controller. And 4 settings of micro-step resolution is at the below table:
| MS1(X/Y) | MS2(X/Y) | Description |
| L | L | Full step |
| H | L | Half step |
| L | H | Quarter step |
| H | H | Eighth STEP |
