Figure 12.2 microPlyer microstep interpolation with rising STEP frequency
In Figure 12.2, the first STEP cycle is long enough to set the standstill bit stst. This bit is cleared on
the next STEP active edge. Then, the external STEP frequency increases. After one cycle at the higher
rate microPlyer adapts the interpolated microstep rate to the higher frequency. During the last cycle at
the slower rate, microPlyer did not generate all 16 microsteps, so there is a small jump in motor
angle between the first and second cycles at the higher rate.
