The key takeaways are that stepper motors rotate in discrete steps when pulses are applied to their windings in a specific sequence, and they can be interfaced to an 8086 microprocessor using an 8255 PPI chip and Darlington transistors.

A stepper motor rotates its shaft in discrete steps by employing a rotor with teeth that engages with the teeth of a surrounding stator. Pulses applied in the correct sequence to the motor windings cause the rotor to rotate one tooth at a time.

An 8255 PPI chip is used to provide the pulse sequence from the 8086 I/O ports to the stepper motor windings. However, Darlington transistors are also needed since the 8255 cannot source enough current to drive the motor coils directly.

APPARATUS:-

Microprocessor trainer kit, ADC kit, power supply, data cable etc

THEORY:-

Stepper motor is a device used to obtain an accurate position control of rotating


shafts. A stepper motor employs rotation of its shaft in terms of steps, rather than
continuous rotation as in case of AC or DC motor. To rotate the shaft of the stepper
motor, a sequence of pulses is needed to be applied to the windings of the stepper
motor, in proper sequence. The numbers of pulses required for complete rotation of
the shaft of the stepper motor are equal to the number of internal teeth on its rotor.
The stator teeth and the rotor teeth lock with each other to fix a position of the
shaft. With a pulse applied to the winding input, the rotor rotates by one teeth
position or an angle x. the angle x may be calculated as.

x = 3600 / no. of rotor teeth

After the rotation of the shaft through angle x, the rotor locks it self with the next
tooth in the sequence on the internal surface of the stator. The typical schematic of
a typical stepper motor with four windings is as shown below.

The stepper motors have been designed to work with digital circuits. Binary level
pulses of 0-5V are required at its winding inputs to obtain the rotation of the shafts.
The sequence of the pulses can be decided, depending upon the required motion of
the shaft. By suitable sequence of the pulses the motor can be used in three modes
of operation.

One phase ON (medium torque)


Two phase ON (high torque)
Half stepping (low torque)
WORKING:-

8255 is interfaced with 8086 in I/O mapped I/O. port C (PC0, PC1, PC2, PC3) is used
to give pulse sequence to stepper motor. The 8255 provides very less current which
will not be able to drive stepper motor coils so each of the winding of a stepper
motor needs to be interfaced using high speed switching Darlington transistors with
max 1A, 80V rating with heat sink, with the output port of 8255. Output the
sequence in correct order to have the desired direction to rotate the motor.
