Motor selection
Some stepper motors are not designed for continuous operation at maximum current. As the circuit drives a con-
stant current through the motor, its temperature can increase, both at low- and high-speed operation.
Interference
As the circuit operates with switched-mode current regulation, interference-generation problems can arise in some
applications. A good measure is then to decouple the circuit with a 0.1 F ceramic capacitor, located near the
package across the power line V

leads connecting R
printed circuit board directly to the terminal connector. The motor wires should be twisted in pairs, each phase
separately, when installing the motor system.
Unused inputs
Unused inputs should be connected to proper voltage levels in order to obtain the highest possible noise immunity.
Ramping
A stepper motor is a synchronous motor and does not change its speed due to load variations. This means that the
torque of the motor must be large enough to match the combined inertia of the motor and load for all operation
modes. At speed changes, the requires torque increases by the square, and the required power by the cube of the
speed change. Ramping, i.e., controlled acceleration or deceleration must then be considered to avoid motor pull-
out.

CC
Some stepper motors have such high core losses that they are not suited for switched-mode operation.
