Understanding Unipolar Stepper Motors and Motor Control
Unipolar stepper motors are commonly used in smaller applications, with specific coil wire configurations that allow them to be driven only as unipolar motors. This guide outlines the wiring configurations, coil phases, and motor control steps for efficient operation of these motors.

Blue Pink: 45 Ohms Blue Yellow: 45 Ohms Blue Orange: 45 Ohms Blue Red: 23 Ohms This style is common in smaller unipolar motors. All of the common coil wires are tied together internally and brought out as a 5th wire. This motor can only be driven as a unipolar motor.
