Original author: irina (source: https://github.com/ponoor/STEP400)

## Components

- **STEP400** x 1

## Article

STEP400 is a 4-axis stepper motor driver designed for art or design projects. STEP400 combines the following elements into one single board:

- [Arduino Zero](https://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/ArduinoZero)

- Ethernet shield

- Four stepper motor drivers

- Sensor inputs for homing and limiting

The?[current firmware](https://github.com/ponoor/step-series-universal-firmware)?is focused on working with?[Open Sound Control](http://opensoundcontrol.org/)?(OSC) via Ethernet, which is a common protocol for creative coding environments, like openFrameworks, Processing, Max, Unity, or Touch Designer.

Stepper driver chips are STMicroelectronics's?[powerSTEP01](https://www.st.com/en/motor-drivers/powerstep01.html)?which provide most of functionalities as a stepper driver.
