	An alternative method for building this circuit is using the [[media:DS2003.pdf\|DS2003]] darlington array. It is lower power, but will save some space and is easier to construct. The circuit is exactly the same as above, except the transistors are inside the IC.		An alternative method for building this circuit is using the [[media:DS2003.pdf\|DS2003]] darlington array. It is lower power, but will save some space and is easier to construct. The circuit is exactly the same as above, except the transistors and half the diodes are inside the IC.

	The L297 has several inputs that can be generated by a PC/104 stack or other controller. This circuit allows you to control each step, in full-step mode. Meaning: You can tell it to move one step in either direction (of course you can make it move fast and it will continuously rotate). The two inputs are a direction and a pulse. In the next section you will find a program to control this using xPC.		The L297 has several inputs that can be generated by a PC/104 stack or other controller.
