The Tic family of stepper motor controllers makes it easy to add basic control of a bipolar stepper motor to a variety of projects. These versatile, general-purpose modules support six different control interfaces: USB for direct connection to a computer, TTL serial and I²C for use with a microcontroller, RC hobby servo pulses for use in an RC system, analog voltages for use with a potentiometer or analog joystick, and quadrature encoder for use with a rotary encoder dial.
They also offer many settings that can be configured using our free configuration utility (for Windows, Linux, and macOS). This software simplifies initial setup of the device and allows for in-system testing and monitoring of the controller via USB (a micro-B USB cable is required to connect the Tic to a computer).
• Open-loop speed or position control of one bipolar stepper motor
• A variety of control interfaces:
◦ USB for direct connection to a computer
◦ TTL serial operating at 5 V for use with a microcontroller
◦ I²C for use with a microcontroller
◦ RC hobby servo pulses for use in an RC system
◦ Analog voltage for use with a potentiometer or analog joystick
◦ Quadrature encoder input for use with a rotary encoder dial, allowing full rotation without limits (not for position feedback)
◦ STEP/DIR inputs for compatibility with existing stepper motor control firmware
• Acceleration and deceleration limiting
• Maximum stepper speed: 50,000 steps per second
• Very slow speeds down to 1 step every 200 seconds (or 1 step every 1428 seconds with reduced resolution).
• Selectable microstep modes up to 1/256-step resolution:
◦ The Tic 36v4 supports full-step to 1/256-step modes
◦ The Tic T825, Tic T834, and T249 support full-step to 1/32-step modes
◦ The Tic T500 supports full-step to 1/8-step modes
