dcondrey / MicrostepToLinear

A versatile Arduino library for converting stepper motor microsteps into precise linear distances, compatible with any stepper motor.

MicrostepToLinear Arduino Library

Overview

Convert stepper motor microsteps to linear distance with ease and precision. Available in the Arduino Library Manager.

Features

• Customizable step angle, microsteps, and pitch
• Efficient conversion from microsteps to linear distance

Installation

Arduino Library Manager

1. Open Arduino IDE, go to Sketch > Include Library > Manage Libraries....
2. In the Library Manager window, enter "MicrostepToLinear" into the search box.
3. Click the "Install" button when you see the library.

Arduino CLI

1. Install the library directly using Arduino CLI.

arduino-cli lib install MicrostepToLinear

Manual Installation

git clone https://github.com/dcondrey/MicrostepToLinear.git
cd MicrostepToLinear
arduino-cli lib install .

Usage

Include the library and initialize the converter object.

#include "MicrostepToLinear.h"
MicrostepToLinear converter(1.8, 16, 2.0);

Convert microsteps to linear distance:

float distance = converter.convert(3200);
