Hi Guys,
I'm busy "designing" a CNC router. I have started with what I like to call an axis coordinator.
The coordinator should do the following:
Control the Stepper motor
Read the temperature of the stepper motor
Control some indicator LED's
Read photo interrupters which will indicate the zero and max positions of the axis.
Run two fans, one keeping the coordinator cool and another to help keep the stepper motor cool.
Unfortunately my circuit diagramming tool is very rudamentary so I don't have symbols for fans for instance.
Attached is what I have so far.
I would really appreciate any comments on this especially if anything is blatantly wrong with it. I'm really doing this to learn and maybe have something useful in the end.
