Hello,
I have recently purchased some stepper motors for a robotic arm I am building and I require some motor drivers for them. Could anyone possibly supply a diagram of how to connect a motor to a motor driver and also what is meant by 16 microstepping mode? I will attach links to the motors that I have below, any make any recommendations to which drivers I should use?

Microstepping mode means the stepper is able to operate the controller in fractional steps. If each normal step is (for example) 1.8 degrees, microstepping would allow for fractions of this. Regarding wiring / programming and details, it’s always best to refer to the manual for that stepper motor controller.
