General Description
The MBC25SI1 is a low cost single axis step motor driver integrated with a programmable simple 
indexer.  The MBC25SI1 microstep driver/pulse generator has an output current capability of 0.5A 
minimum to 2.5A maximum (peak rating).  The MBC25SI1 driver operates with a DC voltage of 
12VDC to 35VDC.  The MBC25SI1’s internal controller has four different programmable motion 
profi les.  The MBC25SI1 also has directional soft and hard limit switch inputs, a busy...

When powered and operated properly, the status LED will be green.  When an error occurs, the LED 
will change to RED and an error code will be generated in the error code register.  To read and clear 
the error with the software, click on the “Verify Parameters” button.  To read and clear the error while 
in “Direct Mode” use the “!” command.  Once the error has been read and cleared, the LED will return 
to green and the error code register will be cleared.  Refer to the table...

Microstep Modes
The microstepping modes are set by using the software when the profi les are being setup.  The 
ranges of microstepping are 200, 400, 800, and 1600 steps per revolution in a 200 step/revolu-
tion step motor.  To set the divisor just select the divisor wanted (1,2,4 or 8).  (Refer to Motion 
Tab Sheet)
Setting the Output Current
The output current on the MBC25SI1 is set by the on-board potentiometer R29 (Refer to Dimen-
sions/Jumper and Potentiometer Locations).  This...

Determine Output Current
The output current used for motor when microstepping is determined differently from that of a 
full/half step unipolar driver.  In the MBC25SI1, a sine/cosine output function is used in rotating 
the motor.  The output current for a given motor is determined by the motors current rating and 
the wiring confi guration of the motor.  There is a current adjustment potentiometer used to set 
the output current of the MBC25SI1.  This sets the peak output current...
