Hi list 

Concept query;
Looking at stepper drives, the general format seems to be 4 phases out, or 
Dir+Step, obviously saving two I/O lines.

So why isn't a two phase signal used?. A 'quadrature' output?
- you still use two lines
- less worry about pulse duration
- transmission line speed requirement is slightly eased as the lines step 
alternately 
- it applies equally to stepper or DC servo drives
- there is no(or less) problem of timing error on direction reversal since the 
signal changes are 'slow' at this point

Maybe this is common, or what did I miss?
