Product Description:

The DM542EU is a digital stepper drive with simple design and easy setup. By implementing Leadshine advanced stepper control technology, this stepper drive is able to power 2-phase and 4 phase stepper motors smoothly with optimal torque and low motor heating & noise. Its operating voltage is 20 – 50 V DC and it can output up to 4.2 A current

All the micro step and output current are done via DIP switches. Therefore, the DM542EU is an ideal choice for applications requiring simple step & direction control of NEMA 17, 23, and 24 stepper motors

Features:
  • Anti-Resonance for optimal torque, extra smooth motion, low motor heating and noise
  • Motor auto-identification and parameter auto-configuration for optimal torque from wide-range motors
  • Step & direction (PUL/DIR) control
  • Multi-Stepping for smooth motor movement
  • Optically isolated inputs
  • Input voltage 20 – 50 V DC
  • 16 selectable micro-step resolutions of 400 - 25.600 via DIP switches
  • 8 selectable output current settings of 1.0 - 4.2A via DIP switches
  • Soft-start with no “jump” when powered on
  • Pulse input frequency up to 200 KHz
  • Automatic idle-current reduction
  • Protections for over-voltage and over-current
