Hi everyone, I hope my message finds you well. I bought a stepper motor model: st-pm35-15-11c recently and I wanted to run it using a L298N stepper driver. The rated voltage for the motor is 12 V as it is written on the motor. When I set the voltage input to the driver to 12 V, the motor does not t…

The L298 is ancient and very inefficient bi-polar technology. It will drop 2V to over 4V and dissipate that power as heat. They are, by today's standards, poor DC motor drivers and even worse stepper drivers. [image] MasoudHasany: "This is due to the fact that stepper motors run better and fa…
