PhidgetStepper Bipolar Stepper Motor Controller

I'm using 5 of these steppers for two research based machines. I like the excellent software which is available for Linux and all the other major platforms. The hardware is excellent in my experience so far. I wish the boards had limit switch inputs, but stopping them under software control is fast and easy, yet requires additional digital input hardware. I accidentally applied the motor voltage backwards to one board and the board survived.

The PhidgetStepper Controller is a great product. We used three of them to control an auto microscope. We used their C# examples and had no problem incorporating into our code. Their service was excellent because we called them for help.

This module, although not cheap, provides a very effective drive module for stepper motors, including micro stepping. The ability to set velocity, acceleration and drive current for instance allow very efficient control of motors. Easy to drive using the Phidgets library of code modules.
