Stepper motor driver evaluation board based on the L6482
Introduction
The EVL6482 is a stepper motor driver evaluation board based on the L6482.
It provides an affordable and easy-to-use solution to drive a stepper motor in your application.
The L6482 device, created using analog mixed signal technology, is an advanced fully integrated solution suitable for driving
two-phase bipolar stepper motors with microstepping. It integrates a dual full bridge gate driver for N-channel MOSFET power
stages with embedded non dissipative overcurrent protection. Thanks to a new current control, a 1/16 microstepping is achieved
through an adaptive decay mode which outperforms traditional implementations. The digital control core can generate userdefined motion profiles with acceleration, deceleration, speed or target position easily programmed through a dedicated set of
registers. All application commands and data registers, including those used to set analog values (that is: current protection trip
point, deadtime, PWM frequency, etc.) are sent through a standard 5-Mbit/s SPI. A complete set of protections (thermal, low bus
voltage, overcurrent and motor stall) makes the L6482 device fully protected, as required by the most demanding motor control
applications.
The EVL6482 is compatible with the Arduino® UNO R3 connector and supports the addition of other boards which can be
stacked to drive up to three stepper motors.

Getting started
1
Getting started
The EVL6482 evaluation board is a stepper motor driver covering a wide range of applications which can be used
with supply voltages ranging from 7.5 V to 85 V.
Follow this procedure to start your evaluation:
1.
Check the setting of the jumpers based on your configuration as described in Section 2 Hardware
description and configuration
2.
Connect the board with the STM32 Nucleo board through Arduino UNO R3
3.
Supply the board through input 2 (VS) and 1 (ground) of the connector CN2
4.
The power OK (green) and fault (red) LEDs turn on
In order to use the EVL6482 in conjunction with the STSPIN Studio, please visit www.st.com.
Up to three evaluation boards can be stacked on the same STM32 Nucleo board, as described in
Section 2.2 Multi-motor configuration.
Further support material is available on the respective product pages on www.st.com.

Multi-motor configuration
The evaluation boards can be stacked on a single STM32 Nucleo board to drive up to three stepper motors (one
for each motor).
By default, the stepper driver board is configured for a motor driven by chip select line 1 of the SPI, so the board
configuration for multi-motor setups must be changed in accordance with Table 2 before stacking the boards on
the STM32 Nucleo.
The stacked boards exploit the same step-clock signal and share the same fault and busy pins.
2.3
External switch connection
An external switch can be connected to J1 to stop the motor movement when the switch status changes. For
proper management of this additional feature of the L6482 device, refer to section “External switch (SW pin)” of
the related datasheet (see www.st.com).
2.4
Supply management and voltage regulators
The EVL6482 integrates a supply circuitry to allow a flexible supply management of the device.
By default, the gate driver supply (VCC) is obtained by the internal voltage regulator connected to the external VS
and the logic supply (VREG) is obtained from the STM32 Nucleo (VDD).
However the user can change this configuration by acting on the resistors R10, R12, R13, R14, and R16 as
indicated in Table 3. For further details, refer to section “Supply management and internal voltage regulators” of
the related datasheet.
It must be noted that, as the 3.3 V regulator of the EVL6482 devices is not designed to supply external
components, the J2 jumper must be removed in case the logic supply is internally obtained.
