Overview
This hybrid stepping motor has a 1.8° step angle (200 steps/revolution). Each phase draws 1.2 A at 4 V, allowing for a holding torque of 3.2 kg-cm (44 oz-in). The motor has six color-coded wires terminated with bare leads that allow it to be controlled by both unipolar and bipolar stepper motor drivers. When used with a unipolar stepper motor driver, all six leads are used. When used with a bipolar stepper motor driver, the center-tap yellow and white wires can be left disconnected (the red-blue pair gives access to one coil and the black-green pair gives access to the other coil). We recommend using it as a bipolar stepper motor.

Dimensions
The following diagram shows the stepper motor dimensions in mm. The dimension labeled “length” is 48 mm. The output shaft has a length of 24 mm and a diameter of 5 mm, and it works with our 5mm universal mounting hub . Though not shown in the diagram, the output is a D-shaft with a section that is flattened by 0.5 mm. This is a NEMA 17-size motor.

Stepper Motor Applications
Stepper motors are generally used in a variety of applications where precise position control is desirable and the cost or complexity of a feedback control system is unwarranted. Here are a few applications where stepper motors are often found:
- Printers
- CNC machines
- 3D printer/prototyping machines
- Laser cutters
- Pick and place machines
- Linear actuators
- Hard drives
Note: This stepper motor is SOYO part number SY42STH47-1206A.
