Each phase draws 1 A at 5.7 V, allowing for a holding torque of 4 kg-cm (55 oz-in). The motor has six color-coded wires terminated with bare leads that allow it to be controlled by both unipolar and bipolar stepper motor drivers. When used with a unipolar stepper motor driver, all six leads are used. When used with a bipolar stepper motor driver, the center-tap yellow and white wires can be left disconnected (the red-blue pair gives access to one coil and the black-green pair gives access to the other coil). Pololu recommend using it as a bipolar stepper motor and controlling it with one of Pololu's [bipolar stepper motor drivers](https://core-electronics.com.au/breakout-boards-and-modules/motor-drivers-controllers/stepper-motor-drivers.html) or one of Pololu's [Tic Stepper Motor Controllers](https://core-electronics.com.au/breakout-boards-and-modules/motor-drivers-controllers/stepper-motor-drivers.html). In particular, the Tics make control easy because they support six different interfaces (USB, TTL serial, I²C, RC, analog voltages, and quadrature encoder) and are configurable over USB with Pololu's free configuration utility. | [![](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/0J6183_22306ccfa6d.jpg)](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/0J6183_2595935f0c9.jpg) | |---| | NEMA 23 stepper motor (item #1475) mounted with a steel L-bracket for NEMA 23 stepper motors. | Pololu's [1/4" universal mounting hub](https://core-electronics.com.au/pololu-universal-aluminum-mounting-hub-for-1-4-shaft-4-40-holes-2-pack.html) and [1/4" scooter wheel adapter](https://core-electronics.com.au/pololu-aluminum-scooter-wheel-adapter-for-1-4-shaft.html) can be used to mount objects on the stepper motor’s 1/4"-diameter output shaft, and Pololu carry a [NEMA 23 steel bracket](https://core-electronics.com.au/steel-l-bracket-for-nema-23-stepper-motors.html) for securely mounting this stepper motor to a flat surface (the picture above shows this bracket being used with a taller NEMA 23 stepper motor). **Specifications** - Size: 56.4 mm square × 41 mm, not including the shaft (NEMA 23) - Weight: 450 g (16 oz) - Shaft diameter: 6.35 mm (0.25") “D” - Steps per revolution: 200 - Current rating: 1 A per coil - Voltage rating: 5.7 V - Resistance: 5.7 O per coil - Holding torque: 4 kg-cm (55 oz-in) - Inductance: 5.4 mH per coil - Lead length: 30 cm (12") - Output shaft supported by two ball bearings More specifications are available in the datasheet (50k pdf). **Dimensions** The following diagram shows the stepper motor dimensions in mm.
