This is a full-featured motor shield that will be able to power many simple to medium-complexity projects.
- 2 connections for 5V 'hobby' servos connected to the Arduino's high-resolution dedicated timer - no jitter!
- 4 H-Bridges: L293D chipset provides 0.6A per bridge (1.2A peak) with thermal shutdown protection, internal kickback protection diodes. Can run motors on 4.5VDC to 25VDC.
- 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 or interleaved stepping.
- Pull down resistors keep motors disabled during power-up
- Big terminal block connectors to easily hook up wires (18-26AWG) and power
- Arduino reset button brought up top
- 2-pin terminal block and jumper to connect external power, for separate logic/motor supplies
- Tested compatible with Arduino Mega 1280 & 2560, Diecimila, Duemilanove, and UNO
- Download the easy-to-use Arduino software library, check out the examples and you're ready to go!
Details:
- Dimensions(assembled): 69mm x 53mm x 14.3mm (2.7in x 2.1in x 0.6in)
- Weight: 32g / 1.15oz
- Arduino Stepper/Servo software library with microstepping support.
To install, click on Download in the top right corner, select zip and uncompress the folder.
Rename the folder to AFmotor (check that the renamed folder contains the .cpp and .h files) and install into the Arduinosketches/libraries folder.
For information how to use and install libraries, see our tutorial! This version now works with with the Mega. Public domain!
- AccelStepper library with AFMotor support. This library allows for advanced stepper control including accelleration and decelleration, and concurrent stepper control!
To install, click on Download in the top right corner, select zip and uncompress the folder.
Rename the folder to AFmotor (check that the renamed folder contains the .cpp and .h files) and install into the Arduinosketches/libraries folder.
