Does anyone know what "stepped increment" mean? Can someone explain it to me and, if possible, also tell me the concept in Spanish?

No estoy segurro, pero creo que las palabras «stepped increment» quieren decir que la cantidad se aumenta en incremementos discretos, como la función de las escaleras que se demuestra aquí:

Por favor, perdoneme si hay errores en mis frases. Me gusta practicar de vez en cuando.

To me, stepped increment sounds like a binary-like behaviour.. ie. it can only be 0 or 1... not anything in between.
Step increments are used in some electric motors whereby the current is on and off to a series of coils thereby making the rotor spin.
Sorry, can't think of an easy example. Maybe do a google on "step function".. should be lots on it
