This is an Arduino Shield for driving motors such as the servo motors, Dc motor, stepper motor etc. It has on-board motor drivers for the motors.
Features
2 connections for 5V servos connected to the high-resolution dedicated timer – no jitter!
4 H-Bridges: TB6612 chipset provides 1.2A per bridge (3A peak) with thermal shutdown protection, internal kickback protection diodes. Can run motors on 4.5VDC to 13.5VDC.
Up to 4 bi-directional DC motors with individual 8-bit speed selection (so, about 0.5% resolution)
Up to 2 stepper motors (unipolar or bipolar) with single coil, double coil, interleaved or micro-stepping.
Motors automatically disabled on power-up
Big terminal block connectors to easily hook up wires (18-26AWG) and power
Reset button brought up top
Polarity protected 2-pin terminal block and jumper to connect external power, for separate logic/motor supplies
Applications
It is used for multiple motors with the Arduino board.
