Here is a cute stepper-motor driver we've been rigging. It takes a motor-on pulse and converts it to a 12V stepper step. It uses positive pulses and negative pulses to make the stepper go forward or backward. If you tell the RCX to run the motor at (...) (25 years ago, 25-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
