Title: Stepper driver
Post by: drinu on March 31, 2014, 02:35:13 AM

Hi all,

Have anyone ever used the TB1H stepper motor driver? I read on the net that it only provide the motor with 30% performance due to the bad design (selection of internal components). Is that true?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

It looks pretty good with complete documentation.
How is the warranty?
How is the customer service?
