Stepper Library

This library allows you to control unipolar or bipolar stepper motors. To use it you will need a stepper motor, and the appropriate hardware to control it. For more on that, see Tom Igoe’s notes on steppers.

Circuits

See the circuits from the Arduino reference:

Unipolar Steppers
