A driver chip, which usually contains two full-bridge circuits, controls the amount and direction of current flowing through each coil. When one or both coils are energized, a magnetic field is created with a repeating pattern of peaks and valleys + ![fullStep2](images/fullStepTwoPhase.png) ![fullStep1](images/fullStepOnePhase.png)
