zephyr,gpio-stepper

Vendor: Zephyr-specific binding

Note

An implementation of a driver matching this compatible is available in drivers/stepper/gpio_stepper_controller.c.

Description

GPIO Stepper Controller for darlington transistor arrays or dual H-bridge

Example:
  /* Lead A is connected Lead C and Lead B is connected to Lead D*/
  stepper: stepper {
      compatible = "zephyr,gpio-stepper";
      gpios = <&gpioa 9 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>,  /* Lead A1/A */
              <&gpioc 7 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>,  /* Lead B1/B */
              <&gpiob 0 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>,  /* Lead A2/C */
              <&gpioa 7 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;  /* Lead B2/D */
  };

Properties

Properties not inherited from the base binding file.

Name

Type

Details

gpios

phandle-array

The gpio pin array on which the stepper inputs are to be connected

This property is required.

invert-direction

boolean

Invert motor direction.

micro-step-res

int

micro-step resolution to be set while initializing the device driver.

Default value: 1

Legal values: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256

en-gpios

phandle-array

GPIO pins used to control the enable signal of the motor driver.

step-gpios

phandle-array

The GPIO pins used to send step signals to the stepper motor.

dir-gpios

phandle-array

The GPIO pins used to send direction signals to the stepper motor.
Pin will be driven high for forward direction and low for reverse direction.

counter

phandle

Counter used for generating step-accurate pulse signals.
