Block Diagram
Juno step motor control ICs are single-axis devices that provide sophisticated microstepping control of two-phase step
motors.
At power-up or reset, Juno checks for the presence of stored configuration commands in its NVRAM. If detected, the
stored configuration commands are loaded into the active control registers that will be used during operation. If no initial
configuration is stored in NVRAM, then default values are used, and information is sent by serial from a host device
such as a microprocessor or cable-connected PC to configure the Juno IC for a specific application.
Depending on how Juno has been configured an external pulse and direction or SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) data
stream may be used for the incremental position command value. Alternatively an internal profile generator commanded
via the serial port may be used to generate programmable step rates.
