## Description

The DC + Stepping Motor Technology in the Adafruit HAT FOR YOUR robot's dream a reality. This Raspberry Pi add-on is perfect for any working your project, or with full PWM speed control up to 4 DC STEPPING MOTOR TECHNOLOGY drive up to 2 base. Raspberry Pi is a PWM pin features a large amount so you don't we designed specifically for PWM driver chip for the motor direction and speed control on the market. This tip is perfect for all motor and over I2 °C with speed control. Multiple motor to operate your all you need only two pins (SDA & SCL). And a I2 °C or other I2 °C devices or hat and so even the same pin can be connected. Multiple motor hat up to 32 wash an arsenal for up to 64 machine or stepping motor technology up to 128 machine DC motor (or it can control the mixture includes 2 – however this item is to be included in pack of 1 for use in the loading to the header soldered in the interior for your solder to thank you. Don't forget Motor is the output of up to 1.2 A./current operating force controlled by TB6612 MOSFET drivers the channel (max. 3 A/~ 20ms) per one big improvement from the L293D driver on the market. Also built-in spring diodes on the market. We offer even more space for a room of the electrode protection FET on the power pins on top, also a little addition to the prototyping area. Hat is assembled and inspected with the Adafruit soldered work are x, terminal block header in to get, so it is possible to our customers. Just stick to. Easy to use Python library, you can install 用例 check if you are good to go. Assembled and tested in hat pure-nhedda- included in the terminal blocks, x. The soldering of the header on cupcakes as you need to.

## Features

- 4 H Bridge – Bridge: The TB6612 chipset 1 a 1.2 a power supply. Heat resistant up to shutdown protection, internal kick back with protective diode. Motor is operating in the 4.5 VDC to 13.5 VDC.
- Personalised with 8 bit choose your speed bi-directional DC motor to be a resoryu-syon of up to 4 PCs (about 0.5%)
- Single coil, double coil, interleaved or your maikurosuteppingu stepping motor technology up to 2 PCs (Single-Pole or bipolar).
- Large burokkukonekuta wire (18 – AWG) and power makes it easy to connect your device.
- Perfect for your Raspberry Pi Model A +, B + or 2 or Pi Model A or B but just as 2x13 x20 in the longer length sizes in header or alternatively purchase a solder in case of outdoor use.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Id like to use 2 motors as well as several servos for a raspberry pi3 robot project.  do i need a servo controller in addition to this motor driver?**
A: A servo needs only 1 signal, DC positive and Ground (Orange, Red, Black).  You can use the prototyping space available on this board to make several servo headers (3-pin male header) by wiring the signal pin from one of the unused GPIO pins as the signal pin for one servo, another unused GPIO pin as signal for second servo, and so on.  You need to supply enough power to drive the motors and the servos.

**Q: Will the software for this work with Ubuntu 22.04?**
A: Operating system doesn't affect this at all.  It depends on the hardware and how it's connected. If you're sitting it on top of a Raspberry Pi, you'll have to find a code library or write it yourself to interface with it. There's no "software" that comes with it.

**Q: After receiving the item, is any soldering required?**
A: I have not used the HAT, but have the stepper motor. With most breadboards and connections like this, you can just use a wire plug in a tighten the screw. Not always a good connection. Soldering makes a tighter connection if used in robots or things that move. If not non-solder techniques are OK. Some type of connectors are still best. Hope this helps.

**Q: Does this work with a raspberry pi 3?**
A: I've been using this board for about a year and it works perfectly for all motorized pi projects.
