How to programme a powerstep01?

Anybody who can teach me how to use a powerstep01 to drive the step motor?

I have the demo boards and the powerstep01 works well with the demos and the download software from st.com.

Now, i want to use another MCU (low price) to drive the step motor with powerstep01, but i found the software is very hard to understand, and it is hard to adjust the program to fit the new MCU.

Did anybody do the similar work before?

Or can somebody tell me how to adjust the demo program, at least make the motor move.

Thank you very much.

Hi,

you can have a look the the

.

Even if they are different devices, the communication protocol and the register map are the same!

You can also use the

related to the X-NUCLEO-IHM03A1. This lib is easily portable to all the STM32
