s APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

How Many Microsteps?

The number of true microsteps that can be obtained depends upon many different variables, such as the number of

data bits in the Digital-to-Analog converter, errors in the converter, acceptable torque ripple, single- or double-pulse

programming, the motor’s electrical, mechanical and magnetic characteristics, etc. Many limits can be found in the

motor’s ability to perform properly; overcome friction, repeatability, torque linearity, etc. It is important to realize that

the number of current levels, 128 (27), is not the number of steps available. 128 is the number of current levels

(reference voltage levels) available from each driver stage. Combining a current level in one winding with any of

128 other current levels in the other winding will make up 128 current levels. So expanding this, it is possible to get

16,384 (128 • 128) combinations of different current levels in the two windings. Remember that these 16,384 micro-

positions are not all useful, the torque will vary from 100% to 0% and some of the options will make up the same

position. For instance, if the current level in one winding is OFF (0%) you can still vary the current in the other

winding in 128 levels. All of these combinations will give you the same position but a varying torque.

Typical Application

The microstepper solution can be used in a system with or without a microprocessor.

Without a microprocessor, a counter addresses a ROM where appropriate step data is stored. Step and Direction

are the input signals which represent clock and up / down of counter. This is the ideal solution for a system where

there is no microprocessor or it is heavily loaded with other tasks.

With a microprocessor, data is stored in ROM / RAM area or each step is successively calculated. NJU39612 is

connected like any peripheral addressable device. All parts of stepping can be tailored for specific damping needs

etc. This is the ideal solution for a system where there is an available microprocessor with extra capacity and low

cost is more essential than simplicity. See typical application, figure 13.

s User Hints

Never disconnect ICs or PC Boards when power is supplied.

Select a motor that is rated for the current you need to establish desired torque. A high supply voltage will gain

better stepping performance even if the motor is not rated for the VMM voltage, the current regulation in the drivers

from New JRC will take care of it. A normal stepper motor might give satisfactory result, but while microstepping, a

“microstepping-adapted” motor is recommended. This type of motor has smoother motion due to two major differ-

ences, the stator / rotor teeth relationship is non-equal and the static torque is lower.

The NJU39612 can handle programs which generate microsteps at a desired resolution as well as quarter

stepping, half stepping, full stepping, and wave drive.

Ramping

Every drive system has inertia which must be considered in the drive system. The rotor and load inertia play a big

role at higher speeds. Unlike the DC motor, the stepper motor is a synchronous motor and does not change its

speed due to load variations. Examining a typical stepper motor’s torque-versus-speed curve indicates a sharp

torque drop-off for the “start-stop without error” curve. The reason for this is that the torque requirements increase

by the cube of the speed change. For good motor performance, controlled acceleration and deceleration should be

considered even though microstepping will improve overall performance.
