I'm using a 28X1 to drive a stepper. However, the stepper draws quite a bit of current. I'm supplying it with a 7805 regulator, but I find that despite a good heatsink, after a while the regulator goes into termal shutdown, so it is probably drawing more than 1A.
Can I wire a couple of 7805 in parallel (I to I, G to G, O to O) ? or should I go to bigger capacity one ?
Thanks
