This book provides an introductory text which will enable the reader to both appreciate the essential characteristics of stepping motor systems and understand how these characteristics are being exploited in the continuing development of new motors, drives and controllers. A basic theoretical approach relating to the more significant aspects of performance is presented, although it is assumed throughout that the reader has no previous experience of electrical machines and is primarily interested in the applications of stepping motors.

The First Maker-Friendly Guide to Electric Motors! Makers can do amazing things with motors. Yes, they’re more complicated than some other circuit elements, but with this book, you can completely master them. Once you do, incredible new projects become possible. Unlike other books, Motors for Makers is 100% focused on what you can do. Not theory. Making. First, Matthew Scarpino explains how electric motors work and what you need to know about each major type: stepper, servo, induction, and linear motors. Next, he presents detailed instructions and working code for interfacing with and controlling servomotors with Arduino Mega, Raspberry Pi, and BeagleBone Black. All source code and design files are available for you to download from motorsformakers.com. From start to finish, you’ll learn through practical examples, crystal-clear explanations, and photos. If you’ve ever dreamed of what you could do with electric motors, stop dreaming...and start making! Understand why electric motors are so versatile and how they work Choose the right motor for any project Build the circuits needed to control each type of motor Program motor control with Arduino Mega, Raspberry Pi, or BeagleBone Black Use gearmotors to get the right amount of torque Use linear motors to improve speed and precision Design a fully functional electronic speed control (ESC) circuit Design your own quadcopter Discover how electric motors work in modern electric vehicles--with a fascinating inside look at Tesla’s patents for motor design and control!

The author's practical approach relates the workings, design and construction of this type of motor to the underlying electromagnetic principles. The reader is given a brief history, as well as the theory, terminology, control systems, and likely applications of these devices.

Concern for reliable power supply and energy-efficient system design has led to usage of power electronics-based systems, including efficient electric power conversion and power semiconductor devices. This book provides integration of complete fundamental theory, design, simulation and application of power electronics, and drives covering up-to-date subject components. It contains twenty-one chapters arranged in four sections on power semiconductor devices, basic power electronic converters, advanced power electronics converters, power supplies, electrical drives and advanced applications. Aimed at senior undergraduate and graduate students in electrical engineering and power electronics including related professionals, this book • Includes electrical drives such as DC motor, AC motor, special motor, high performance motor drives, solar, electrical/hybrid vehicle and fuel cell drives • Reviews advances in renewable energy technologies (wind, PV, hybrid power systems) and their integration • Explores topics like distributed generation, microgrid, and wireless power transfer system • Includes simulation examples using MATLAB®/Simulink and over four hundred solved, unsolved and review problems

This work explains the Importance of Micro stepper motor in various fields like military, medical applications, process control system, machine tools, manufacture of packaged foodstuffs, robotics, textile industry, integrated circuit fabrication and commercially used. So accurate control of stepper motor is necessary for these applications In general, stepper motors are driving in full step, half step and micro-step modes. In this wok for operating the micro step we used A3977 Driver. The A3977 translator converts the STEP and DIRECTION inputs into the control signals required to sequence the current in each of the two H-bridge outputs for full- half- quarter- and eighth-step micro stepping operation of a bipolar stepper motor. The A3977 is a complete micro stepping motor driver with built in translator for easy operation with minimal control lines. It is designed for operating bipolar stepper motors in full-, half-, quarter-and eighth-step modes.

This is a single-volume book on 'electrical machines' that teaches the subject precisely and yet with amazing clarity. The extent has been kept in control so that the entire subject can be covered by students within the limited time of the semesters. Thus, they will not have to consult multiple books anymore. The discussions of concepts include the modern trends used in industry, like efficient transformers, efficient induction motors, DC drives, and the problems related to them.
