The A4988 is a classic stepper driver in a new fit âïļð§
The Allegro A4988 (
https://www.digikey.com/short/zvb1f825) is one of many popular stepper driver chips with a STEP/DIR interface. Pololu popularized the tiny breakouts (
https://www.pololu.com/product/1182) used for like every CNC and 3D printer. We wanted to make a slightly more expansive design. We have mounting holes, terminal blocks for power and stepper wires, and three LEDs that will indicate the direction and when a step is activated.
