  • Stepper motor controller system and a method thereof
    Patent number: 6861818
    Abstract: A system and method for controlling a stepper motor system includes selecting a size for at least one step to be taken by the stepper motor system and selecting a direction for the at least one step. Once the size and direction of the at least one step are selected, then at least one trigger signal for the at least one step of the selected size and in the selected direction is generated. The generated at least one trigger signal is transmitted to the stepper motor system to take the at least one step at the selected size in the selected direction. A calibrated display keeps track of the current position of the stepper motor system in response to at least one of the selected size and the selected direction.

  • TTl controller system for one or more devices and a method thereof
    Publication number: 20030189456
    Abstract: A TTL controller system includes at least one timer system that generates a timing signal and at least one trigger system coupled to the at least one timer system and to each of the devices. The trigger system in response to the timing signal triggers with a trigger signal at least one operation in at least one of the devices. A time period for executing the at least one operation in at least one of the devices is adjustable.
