3 Getting Started

3.1 Requirements

The Stepper Motor BoosterPack is not a standalone evaluation board and requires a compatible

LaunchPad kit to provide the appropriate control signals. In addition to the Stepper Motor BoosterPack

and a compatible LaunchPad, a stepper motor and sufficient power supply are required.

3.2 Configuring the LaunchPad

3.2.1 Example Using MSP-EXP430G2

For the MSP-EXP430G2 LaunchPad, remove the P1.0 and P1.6 (LED1 and LED2) jumpers for correct

operation of the POT and SDO signals of the BoosterPack. The TXD and RXD jumpers should be aligned

horizontally (black rectangles in Figure 4) for operation of the hardware UART with a software application.

Figure 4. MSP-EXP430G2 Jumper Location

For other LaunchPads, ensure that the appropriate jumpers are configured on pins that the BOOST-

DRV8711 BoosterPack utilizes.

Getting Started

3.3 Connecting the Hardware

1. Plug the Stepper Motor BoosterPack onto the LaunchPad as shown in Figure 2.The terminal block

headers should be oriented towards the USB connector.

2. Connect your stepper motor to the terminal block header J5. The motor should have two windings,

each with a + and a – termination. Connect one winding to A1/A2 and the other to B1/B2 (polarity does

not matter). For questions on the motor wire coloring coding, please see the motor’s datasheet.

3. Connect the power supply that will power the Stepper Motor BoosterPack’s DRV8711 and Drive Stage

to the terminal block header J6. The connections have been labeled VM and GND. For full

performance, ensure you can supply as much current as your motor may demand. The Stepper Motor

BoosterPack has a designed operating range from 8.2–52 V up to 4.5 A continuous for each H-Bridge.

WARNING

At high currents the drive stage can increase to high temperatures

4. Enable the power supply

5. Enable your controller and spin the motor. The BOOST-DRV8711 Stepper Motor BoosterPack

combined with a TI LaunchPad provides a complete stepper motor evaluation platform. With the MSP-

EXP430G2 LaunchPad and a MSP430G2553 you can take full advantage of TI's pre-written stepper

motor control application (see Section 4 for additional details).
