Does the step motor belong to ac motor or dc motor?
The stepping motor is not one of them. It is a special motor.I hope my answer will help you.
There are also dc and communication points for the server motor. The step motor should be a dc motor, because he is driven by a dc pulse.
Qizhan talks about the motion of the step motor which is right. But stepping motor is neither ac motor nor dc motor. It is a sommelier motor. Lnaslzt, dc?
Step motor should be ac motor, and stepper motor is an actuator which converts electrical pulse into angular displacement. Popular point: when the stepper driver receives a pulse signal, it is driving a stepper motor according to set the direction of a fixed Angle (and the step Angle). You can control the amount of angular displacement by controlling the number of pulses, so that the target is accurate. At the same time, you can control the speed and acceleration of the motor by controlling the pulse frequency.
