Library ((better)) — A4988 Proteus
The A4988 is a popular microstepping driver used to control bipolar stepper motors. It is widely utilized in 3D printers, CNC machines, and robotics projects due to its simplicity and efficiency. When designing or testing circuits involving this driver, simulating the system before physical prototyping saves time and prevents hardware damage.
With your circuit wired and code compiled, you are ready to link the two inside Proteus.
