Selecting the current level
In a constant-current driver the driver-current level mainly affects the torque at the low frequencies.
Depending on the load torque demand (friction and inertia) as a function of stepping rate, it is often a good idea to reduce the current level to get a more-flat torque characteristics from the motor. This normally decrease resonances and power losses and allows a lower-rated driver circuit.
In Figure 14, the effect of decreased winding current is shown—from the curve we can see that only the low and medium frequencies are affected by the lower current. Power losses at low step rates have also decreased.
The peak output power, however, is not affected as the torque at 2kHz is not decreased.
