Drivers and control kits

The electronics needed to move the motors correctly is called a driver and is specific to each type of motor. It is responsible for receiving the control signals from the machine's main board ("I want the X-axis motor to advance 23 steps in this direction") and sending this order to the motors in the form of an electrical signal with the appropriate shape and power. Inside, there is, among other components, a circuit for each of the two coils that is responsible for circulating current through them in both directions.
