Driver Connectors, P1 and P2 

The following is a brief description of the two connectors of the driver. More detailed descriptions of the 
pins and related issues are presented in sections 4 and 6-9.

Signal 

                   Functions 

1 Pul

(+5V) 

Pul

(pulse) 

Pulse signal: in single pulse(pulse/direction) mode, this input represents pulse 
signal, effective for each upward – rising edge; in double pulse mode 
(pulse/pulse) this input represents clockwise(CW)pulse. For reliable response, 
pulse width should be longer than 3µs. 

3 Dir

(+5V) 

 

4 Dir

(Dir) 

Direction signal: in single-pulse mode, this signal has low/high voltage levels, 
representing two directions of motor rotation; in double-pulse mode (set by inside 
jumper JMPI), this signal is counter-clock (CCW) pulse, effective on each rising 
edge. For reliable motion response, direction signal should be sent to driver 2µs 
before the first pulse of a motion direction reversal. 


 

Ena+(+5V) 


 

Ena- (Ena) 

Enable signal: this signal is used for enable/disable, high level for enabling driver 
and low level for disabling driver. Usually left unconnected(enabled). 

 

Remark 1: Pul/dir is the default mode; internal jumper JMP1 can be used to switch to CW/CCW double-pulse mode. 
Remark 2: Please note motion direction is also related to motor-driver wiring match. Exchanging the connection of two wires for a coil to 
the driver will reverse motion direction. (for example, reconnecting motor A+ to driver A- and motor A- to driver A+ will invert motion 
direction).

Power Supply Selection 

It is important to choose the appropriate power supply to make the driver operate properly. 

Maximum Voltage Input: 

 

The power Mosfet inside the driver can actually operate 24V to +90VDC, including power input 
fluctuation and back EMF voltage generated by motor coils during motor shaft deceleration. Higher 
voltage will damage the driver. Therefore, it is suggested to use power supplies with theoretical output 
voltage of no more than +85V, leaving room for power line fluctuation and back EMF.
