Both methods are demonstrated in the Arduino Library. The serial command method is especially unique in that it allows the user to precisely control the phase, torque, current limit and mixed decay ratio of each coil immediately during stepping. Most stepper motor driver ICs require using an external trimpot to set the current limit, but with the ProDriver, you can precisely adjust this via serial commands!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/learn.sparkfun.com\/tutorials\/sparkfun-prodriver-hookup-guide?_ga=2.201803156.400001343.1600261407-416501732.1599036432\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eGet started with the SparkFun ProDriver Guide\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToshiba TC78H670FTG Clock-in and Serial controlled Bipolar Stepping Motor Driver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLatch terminals for plug and play access (no soldering required!)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAllows full, half, quarter, 1\/8, 1\/16, 1\/32, 1\/64, 1\/128 step operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower supply operating voltage: 3.6 V to 16.0 V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput current ratings: 2.0 A (max)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdditional over current protection provided by an on-board PTC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti error detect functions (Thermal shutdown (TSD), Over current (ISD), motor load open (OPD) and Under voltage lockout (UVLO))\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExposed copper for optional bottom side heat sink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtensive Arduino Library support with 10 examples!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDocuments\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.sparkfun.com\/assets\/a\/c\/a\/a\/5\/SparkFun_ProDriver_TC78H670FTG_schematic.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSchematic\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.sparkfun.com\/assets\/d\/6\/b\/f\/3\/SparkFun_ProDriver_TC78H670FTG_eagle_files.zip\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eEagle Files\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.sparkfun.com\/assets\/8\/d\/c\/3\/a\/SparkFun_ProDriver_TC78H670FTG_dimensions.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBoard Dimensions\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/learn.sparkfun.com\/tutorials\/sparkfun-prodriver-hookup-guide\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eHookup Guide\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.sparkfun.com\/assets\/9\/9\/6\/d\/1\/TC78H670FTG_datasheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDatasheet\u003c\/a\u003e (TC78H670FTG)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/sparkfun\/SparkFun_ProDriver_TC78H670FTG_Arduino_Library\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eArduino Library\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/sparkfun\/SparkFun_ProDriver_TC78H670FTG\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eGitHub Hardware Repository\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Sparkfun","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32227027550291,"sku":"ROB-16836","price":20.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/products\/16836-SparkFun_ProDriver_-_Stepper_Motor_Driver__TC78H670FTG_-01a.jpg?v=1600335226","url":"https:\/\/shop.pimoroni.com\/en-eu\/products\/sparkfun-prodriver-stepper-motor-driver-tc78h670ftg","provider":"Pimoroni Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
