Driver Connection to Stepper Motors
The P808 driver can drive any 4, 6 or 8 lead hybrid stepper motors. The following diagrams illustrate
connection to various kinds of motor leads:
Note that when two coils are connected in parallel, coil inductance is reduced by half and motor speed
can be significantly increased. Serial connection will lead to increased inductance and thus the motor
can be run well only at lower speeds.

Connection Diagram
A complete stepping system should include stepping motor, stepping driver, power supply and
controller (pulse generator).
A typical connection is shown below:
