The NPAD10BF is a Bipolar Microstep Chopper Drive. The excitation mode (microstepping) on the NPAD10BF can be set up to 1/16 microstepping. (read more)

A chopper drive is a power-efficient method of current driving a stepping motor to obtain higher stepping rates. Torque, likewise, is maintained which otherwise would have diminished due to the effects of counter E.M.F. and increased coil impedance. (read more)

This series of unregulated power supply assemblies are designed to convert the AC power line to a low voltage, bipolar DC source. The nominal output from the supply is plus and minus 15 volts DC. Models are available to deliver up to 400 ma. to the connected load. Power line input voltages can be selected to be either 115 or 230 volts AC, single phase, 50 or 60 Hz. (read more)

Bipolar transistors, having 2 junctions, are 3 terminal semiconductor devices. The three terminals of a bipolar transistor are emitter, collector, and base. The transistor can either be a NPN transistor or PNP transistor. (read more)
