This Wi-Fi Stepper Motor Driver enables remote control of a bipolar stepper motor over a wireless network. The project is based on the ESP32 Wi-Fi microcontroller and the BD63731EFV stepper motor driver IC, providing a compact and reliable solution for motion control applications.
The driver operates from a 24 VDC power supply and is capable of driving bipolar stepper motors with output currents of up to 3A. The BD63731EFV supports multiple micro-stepping modes, allowing smooth and precise motor operation while reducing vibration and audible noise.

This module is designed to operate from a 24 VDC power supply. The onboard isolated DC-DC converter (U6) converts the 24 V input into an isolated 3.3 VDC supply for the ESP32 microcontroller and associated logic circuitry.
As an alternative power option, the PCB also provides footprints for an LM317 voltage regulator (U7) along with output-setting resistors R12 and R13. If the LM317 regulator is installed, do not populate the DC-DC converter (U6). Only one of these power supply options should be used at a time.
The bipolar stepper motor driver is based on the BD63731EFV high-performance stepper motor driver IC, a low-power PWM current-controlled driver designed for efficient and precise motor control. The module operates from a 24 VDC power supply and is capable of delivering up to 3.0 A output current, making it suitable for a wide range of bipolar stepper motors.
The driver uses a CLK-IN interface, requiring only STEP (CLK) and DIRECTION (DIR) input signals for motor control. It supports multiple excitation (micro-stepping) modes, including:
