5.6 STEP and DIR Timing Requirements

Typical limits are at TJ = 25°C and VVM = 24 V. Over recommended operating conditions unless otherwise noted.
NO.MINMAXUNIT
1ƒSTEPStep frequency500(1)kHz
2tWH_STEPPulse duration, STEP high970ns
3tWL_STEPPulse duration, STEP low970ns
4tSU_DIR, MxSetup time, DIR or Mx to STEP rising200ns
