MP6603 Stepper Motor Driver Carrier
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.

Notes:
- 1
- At 24 V without a heat sink or forced air flow; max continuous current decreases as supply voltage increases (approx 2.2 A continuous at 12 V and 1.5 A continuous at 50 V).
- 2
- Maximum theoretical current based on components on the board (additional cooling required).
- 3
- This is the input logic high threshold.
- 4
- Absolute maximum voltage on any input is 6.5 V.
