Support Group,
All of the A4988 driver boards are giving me the same results.
They are calibrated by the second method, set to 0.65 VDC. The motor is disconnected during the calibration and motor power is off. All inputs pins are taken to logic low. Calibration is set.
Reconnect of motor power and motor phases. Both power sources are turned on the stepper motor proceeds to run without any pulse step input from the SPST pushbutton, low to high transition. When the button is pressed the stepper motor stops running. Note: the SPST is by default normally opened and this was verified via meter.
All inputs have been re-verified several times. All outputs have been re-verified several times. Calibration has been done several times. Reconnecting at different locations on the breadboard has been done several times. Different soldered boards have been placed into the existing breadboard wiring with the same results.
Now tomorrow is my students last day of class, which is also their final exam day and their projects are due. Their projects include the A4988 board. I have solder several of the boards and tested them and still get the same results.
When someone in the group read this please get back with me via my email address also first thing in the morning.
Thank you.
