Objective:

Understand the interfacing of a Stepper Motor with Arduino and learn to control its precision movement using the Stepper library.

Steps to Perform:

1. Observe the Live Code Editor on the right. Modify the values of steps and speed.
2. Set steps = 2048 to achieve a full 360° rotation, or 1024 for a half-turn.
3. Set speed = 15 (standard RPM for geared stepper motors).
4. Click "Start Simulation" to deploy the code to the virtual Arduino.
5. Watch the motor's rotor and the pulsing electromagnetic coils in the visualization.
6. Click "Stop Simulation" to halt the motor and reset the Arduino to an idle state.

Key Concepts:

• Step Resolution: This motor requires 2048 steps for one full 360° circle (approx. 0.176° per step).
• RPM (Speed): Rotations Per Minute. High-resolution geared motors typically run optimally between 10-20 RPM.
• Phase Sequencing: Arduino pins 8, 9, 10, and 11 pulse in a specific order to rotate the internal magnetic rotor.
• Stepper Library: Arduino library for controlling stepper motors
• Pin Configuration: Uses pins 8, 9, 10, 11 for motor driver control
• setSpeed(): Sets rotation speed in RPM
• step(): Moves motor by specified number of steps (positive = clockwise)
