About this product

The L297 is a stepper motor controller IC that generates the phase, direction and chopping signals for bipolar and unipolar stepper motors. Paired with a dual bridge driver such as the L298N, it forms a complete interface between a microcontroller and the motor. Its current sensing and chopping features keep coil current at the desired level.

Frequently asked questions

What is the price of L297 Stepper Motor Controller IC DIP-20 in Egypt?

L297 Stepper Motor Controller IC DIP-20 currently costs between 20 and 45 EGP across 2 offers in Egypt.

Where can I buy L297 Stepper Motor Controller IC DIP-20 in Egypt?

L297 Stepper Motor Controller IC DIP-20 is available from Future Electronics and Makers Electronics. Compare the offers above to find the best price.

Does the L297 drive the motor coils by itself?

No. The L297 is a controller only. It needs a power driver such as the L298N to switch the motor coils.

Which signals does the microcontroller send to the L297?

Step pulses on CLOCK, direction on CW/CCW, step mode on HALF/FULL, plus ENABLE and RESET. The L297 converts these into the phase sequence for the driver.
