This breakout board for TI’s DRV8434A microstepping bipolar stepper motor driver offers microstepping down to 1/256-step and operates from 4.5 V to 48 V. It can deliver up to approximately 1.2 A continuous per phase without a heat sink or forced air flow (2 A peak). The driver has integrated stall detection and uses a ripple control algorithm that allows tight regulation of current level and increased motor efficiency. The module has a pinout and interface that are very similar to that of our popular A4988 carriers, so it can be used as a drop-in replacement for those boards in many applications. It features built-in protection against under-voltage, over-current, and over-temperature conditions.

Identifying markings

PCB dev codes: md43a
Other PCB markings: 0J13721

Notes:

1
Without included optional headers.
2
Inputs below 6 V reduce the maximum settable current limit. With 4.5 V in the maximum settable limit is 1.75 A.
3
Not intended for use with 48V batteries, which can be well above nominal when fully charged.
4
Without a heat sink or forced air flow.
5
With sufficient additional cooling.
6
Logic high threshold varies for two-state, tri-state, and quad-state pins. See datasheet for details.
7
Absolute maximum voltage on any input is 5.75 V.
