As the current levels can be continuously
controlled by modulating the VR input,
limited microstepping can be achieved.

Switching frequency
The motor inductance, together with the
pulse time, toff , determines the switching
frequency of the current regulator. The
choice of motor may then require other
values on the RT , CT components than
those recommended in figure7, to obtain
a switching frequency above the audible
range. Switching frequencies above 40
kHz are not recommended because the
current regulation can be affected.

Sensor resistor
The RS resistor should be of a non-
inductive type, power resistor. A 1.0 ohm
resistor, tolerance ≤ 1%, is a good choice
for 415 mA max motor current at VR = 5V.
Thepeak motor current, im , can be
calculated by using the formulas:
im = (VR • 0.083) / RS [A], at 100% level
im = (VR • 0.050) / RS [A], at 60% level
im = (VR • 0.016) / RS [A], at 20% level
