MP6602 Stepper Motor Driver Carrier, bottom view with dimensions. |
|---|
This product is a carrier board or breakout board for the MP6602 bipolar/unipolar stepper motor driver from Monolithic Power Systems (MPS); we therefore recommend careful reading of the MP6602GV datasheet (1MB pdf) before using this product. This stepper motor driver lets you control one bipolar stepper motor or unipolar stepper motor with up to a 4 A current limit without a heat sink or forced air flow (see the Power dissipation considerations section below for more information). Here are some of the driver’s key features:
- 4.5 V to 35 V supply voltage range
- Continuous operation up to the maximum current limit setting of 4 A without the need for additional cooling
- Can interface directly with 3.3 V, and 5 V systems
- Supports bipolar and unipolar stepper motors
- Highly configurable through SPI interface (Arduino library available)
- Optional STEP/DIR control pins (stepping can also be controlled through SPI interface alone)
- Six different step resolutions: full-step with 70% current, 1/2-step, 1/4-step, 1/8-step, 1/16-step, and 1/32-step
- Automatic decay mode with SPI-configurable off time
- SPI-configurable automatic hold settings for automatically reducing the winding current when the motor is stopped or lightly loaded
- Diagnostic functions include:
- rotor stall detection
- back EMF measurement
- over-current protection
- open load detection
- over-voltage and under-voltage protection
- over-temperature warning and shutdown
- 4-layer, 2 oz copper PCB for improved heat dissipation
- Exposed solderable ground pad below the driver IC on the bottom of the PCB

This is a breakout board for the MPS MP6602 microstepping bipolar/unipolar stepper motor driver, which features a serial interface and stall detection. It operates from 4.5 V to 35 V with a maximum current limit of 4 A, which it can run at continuously on our carrier board without a heat sink or forced air flow. The SPI interface allows configuration of the current limit, step mode (6 step modes from full-step through 1/32-step), decay mode off time, and stall detection, and it can also be used for stepper motor control. The driver also features built-in protection against under-voltage, over-current, and over-temperature conditions. This version does not include header pins.
