FAQ

What voltage should I use for telescope tracking?

Both 5V and 12V are supported; 12V provides stronger torque for larger loads, while 5V is sufficient for lightweight setups.

Can I use this driver with other stepper motors?

Yes, the ULN2003 driver works with any 4‑phase bipolar stepper motor that matches the voltage and current specifications.

Is additional cooling required?

The metal housing dissipates heat effectively for typical hobbyist use; a small heat sink is only needed for continuous high‑current operation.

How do I connect the LED indicators?

The A, B, C, D LEDs are built into the board and light up automatically as the driver energizes each coil phase.

What is included in the kit?

The package contains the ULN2003 driver board, a 28BYJ-48 stepper motor, wiring harness, and a quick‑start guide.
