In this article I am going to present the basics about using a stepper motor with an Arduino Uno and an Adafruit clone stepper shield.
There are many kind of stepper motors around. From small ones that can be found in digital cameras to bigger ones that can move huge CNC machines back and forth. They usually come with 4, 6 or 8 wires, but they can have even more wires, and special techniques to rotate.
