This product is a carrier board or breakout board for the MP6603 dual full-bridge motor driver from Monolithic Power Systems (MPS); we therefore recommend careful reading of the MP6603 datasheet (1MB pdf) before using this product. This stepper motor driver lets you control one bipolar stepper motor at up to approximately 2 A per phase continuously without a heat sink or forced air flow (depending on supply voltage; see the Power dissipation considerations section on the product page for more information). Here are some of the driver’s key features:
- Simple step and direction control interface
- Four different step resolutions: full-step, half-step, 1/4-step, and 1/8-step
- Adjustable current control lets you set the maximum current output, which lets you use voltages above your stepper motor’s rated voltage to achieve higher step rates
- Internal current sensing allows the driver to automatically adjust the decay mode as necessary to provide the smoothest current waveform
- 8 V to 55 V supply voltage range
- Can deliver approximately 2 A per phase continuously without additional cooling (depending on supply voltage), up to 4 A peak
- Built-in regulator (no external logic voltage supply needed)
- Can interface directly with 3.3 V and 5 V systems
- Over-temperature thermal shutdown, over-current shutdown, short circuit protection, over-voltage protection, and under-voltage lockout
- Module size, pinout, and interface match those of our A4988 stepper motor driver carriers in most respects

This breakout board for the MPS MP6603 microstepping bipolar stepper motor driver offers microstepping down to 1/8-step and operates from 8 V to 55 V. It can deliver up to approximately 2 A per phase continuously without a heat sink or forced air flow (up to 4 A peak). 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-voltage, over-current, and over-temperature conditions, and configurable input modes allow it to alternatively drive brushed DC motors and other loads.

This version of our MP6603 Stepper Motor Driver Carrier ships with male header pins installed, so no soldering is required to use it with an appropriate 16-pin socket or solderless breadboard. Please see the MP6603 Stepper Motor Driver Carrier product page for more information about the driver.
