The Tic T834 USB Multi-Interface Stepper Motor Controller makes basic control of a stepper motor easy. The controller supports six control interfaces: USB, TTL serial, I2C, analog voltage (potentiometer), quadrature encoder, and hobby radio control (RC). This version incorporates a TI DRV8834 driver and ships with soldered header pins and terminal blocks. It can operate from 2.5 V to 10.8 V and can deliver up to approximately 1.5 A per phase without a heat sink or forced air flow (or 2 A max with sufficient additional cooling).

The Tic family of stepper motor controllers makes it easy to add basic control of a bipolar stepper motor to a variety of projects. These versatile, general-purpose modules support six different control interfaces: USB for direct connection to a computer, TTL serial and I2C for use with a microcontroller, RC hobby servo pulses for use in an RC system, analog voltages for use with a potentiometer or analog joystick, and quadrature encoder for use with a rotary encoder dial.
The table below lists the members of the Tic family and shows the key differences among them.

• Open-loop speed or position control of one bipolar stepper motor
• A variety of control interfaces:
○ USB for direct connection to a computer
○ TTL serial operating at 5 V for use with a microcontroller
○ I2C for use with a microcontroller
○ RC hobby servo pulses for use in an RC system
○ Analog voltage for use with a potentiometer or analog joystick
○ Quadrature encoder input for use with a rotary encoder dial, allowing full rotation without limits (not for position feedback)
○ STEP/DIR inputs for compatibility with existing stepper motor control firmware
• Acceleration and deceleration limiting
• Maximum stepper speed: 50,000 steps per second
• Very slow speeds down to 1 step every 200 seconds (or 1 step every 1428 seconds with reduced resolution).
• Selectable microstep modes up to 1/256-step resolution:
○ The Tic 36v4 supports full-step to 1/256-step modes
○ The Tic T825, Tic T834, and T249 support full-step to 1/32-step modes
○ The Tic T500 supports full-step to 1/8-step modes
• Digitally adjustable current limit
• Optional safety controls to avoid unexpectedly powering the motor
• Input calibration (learning) and adjustable scaling degree for analog and RC signals
• 5 V regulator (no external logic voltage supply needed)
• Optional limit switch inputs with homing capabilities
• Optional kill switch inputs
• STEP/DIR outputs for controlling external stepper motor drivers
• Connects to a computer through USB via a USB A to Micro-B cable (not included)
• Arduino library makes it easy to get started using these controllers with an Arduino or compatible board
• Comprehensive user’s guide

The Tic T834 is based on the DRV8834 IC from Texas Instruments. It can operate from 2.5 V to 10.8 V and can deliver up to approximately 1.5 A continuous per phase without a heat sink or forced air flow (the peak current per phase is 2 A). This version is sold with connectors soldered so no soldering is necessary to use it.
