sangaboard 0.4.1

Communication to the Sangaboard unipolar motor driver

pySangaboard

This is the Python module that communicates with the Sangaboard, an open-source board for driving unipolar stepper motors. It also supports older versions of the Sangaboard based on an Arduino Nano and a pair of Darlington driver ICs.

The Sangaboard is the motor board designed for the OpenFlexure Microscope, but it can also be used to drive unipolar stepper motors for other applications.

Sangboards can be purchased from many of the vendors that sell OpenFlexure Microscope kits.
