I made some progress on my antenna rotator project and installed the stepper drivers and the Raspberry Pi computer. I bought two drivers from ardushop.ro and these should work just fine. They are based on Toshiba TB6560AHQ, PWM Chopper-Type Bipolar Driver IC for Stepping Motor Control. The datasheet can be downloaded from here.
My projects looks like this (wiring needs to be completed):
These days I will proceed with the preliminary stepper tests, to evaluate how these drivers work.
