Summary
This project controls a unipolar stepper motor's speed and direction using a 4x4 keypad and displays data on a 16x2 LCD. Users select direction (Left/Right) and input speed via keypad, then start or stop the motor. The microcontroller uses an internal 10MHz oscillator, and a switch on Port A.0 stops the motor. A Proteus simulation is provided. The Bascom code manages keypad input, LCD output, motor control on Port D, and stopping via Port A. The motor steps forward or backward based on the chosen direction.Parts used in the Unipolar Stepper Motor Control Project:
- Unipolar stepper motor
- Microcontroller (ATmega16)
- 4x4 Keypad
- 16x2 LCD display
- Switch connected to Port A.0
- Power supply (internal 10MHz oscillator selected)
- Proteus simulation software (for testing)
With this project you can control a unipolar stepper motor. You can control both the speed and the direction of the motor.
The speed and direction and can changed with help of the keypad. The data’s are displayed over the LCD display. A 4×4 keypad is used for entering the speed and selecting the direction. Load the hex file into the chip, dont forget to select the internal oscillator at 10Mhz. Then switch on the circuit and select the direction by pressing the corresponding key (Left or Right). Then enter the speed through the numeric keys and press the Enter key to start the operation. To switch off the motor press the separate switch which is connected to the port A.0Proteus simulation file is also added with the download file, so that you can run the program on your desktop.
