Pololu Tic

A Rust embedded-hal library for controlling the Pololu Tic series of stepper motor drivers. It supports the same devices the official Arduino driver does, namely the T500, T834, T825, T249, and 36v4.

Currently, this driver only supports I²C, and not the Serial control mode which the Tic devices support. Serial control is planned for the future. This driver also only supports embedded-hal >= 1.0.

Example

A basic example of using this library to set up and control a Tic36v4 is as follows. Ensure you replace <i2c_bus> with your platform's embedded_hal I²C interface.

use pololu_tic::{TicBase, TicI2C, TicProduct};

let mut tic = pololu_tic::TicI2C::new_with_address(
    <i2c_bus>,
    TicProduct::Tic36v4,
    14
);

tic.set_target_velocity(2000000);

loop {
    tic.reset_command_timeout();
}
