The PD42-1270 is an easy to use, single axis controller/driver PANdrive™ for 2-phase bipolar step-
per motors with separate differential encoder and separate home and stop switch inputs. Dy-
namic current control, and quiet, smooth and efficient operation are combined with stealthChop™,
dcStep™, stallGuard™and coolStep™features. Three digital inputs can be configured as home and
endstop switches or incremental encoder inputs. A fourth digital input is available to enable or
disable the motor.
