The 28BYJ-48 motor runs in full step mode, each step corresponds to a rotation of 11.25°. That means there are 32 steps per revolution (360°/11.25° = 32). In addition, the motor has a 1/64 reduction gear set.
The power consumption of the motor is around 240mA.
The ULN2003 is one of the most common motor driver ICs, consisting of an array of 7 Darlington transistor pairs, each pair is capable of driving loads of up to 500mA and 50V. Four out of seven pairs are used on this board.
The board has four LEDs that show activity on the four control input lines (to indicate stepping state). They provide a nice visual when stepping.
The board also comes with an ON/OFF jumper to isolate power to the stepper Motor.

In the case of translating between 3.3V and 5V system:
- VCCA connects to 3.3V power supply
- VCCB connects to 5V power supply
- GND connects to power negative pole respectively, the two power supply should be common-grounded with each other
- When Ax has 3.3V input, Bx will get 5V output
- When Bx has 5V input, Ax will get 3.3V output
- NO direction control required

Description:
The timing belt originally comes from the automotive sector. Later developments of belt shapes resulted from the use of timing belts in scanners. Today, the 3D printer sector is able to benefit particularly from these developments. Toothed belt drives are a very common drive element for positioning in the 3D printer industry due to their high positioning accuracy and the small installation space required. Additional advantages include their low maintenance requirements and long service life.
