I'm studying the use of picaxe chips as control circuits for stepper motors as part of my college project.
One of the criteria for this project is that i research other ways of acheiving the aim.
In my case this means i need to find other ways of controlling the stepper motors other than the use of picaxe chips.
So far i have found various other micro-processors that can do the job, but i was wondering if it can be done without them,
i.e can i control a stepper motor using only electrical components without any "intelligent" or programmable control system.
Circuits using logic chips would acceptable. Any info (links, quotes, explinations, picture etc) would be greatly appreciated.
thank you
