{"product_id":"dc-motor-stepper-featherwing","title":"DC Motor + Stepper FeatherWing","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe DC Motor + Stepper FeatherWing gives your Feather direct control of 2 steppers or 4 DC motors over I2C, no extra pins required.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Feather board without ambition is a Feather board without FeatherWings! This is the \u003cstrong\u003eDC Motor + Stepper FeatherWing \u003c\/strong\u003ewhich will let you use 2 x bi-polar stepper motors or 4 x brushed DC motors (or 1 stepper and 2 DC motors). Using our Feather Stacking Headers or Feather Female Headers you can connect a FeatherWing on top or bottom of your Feather board and let the board take flight!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original Adafruit Motorshield Kit is one of our most beloved kits, which is why we decided to squish it all together on a FeatherWing to make something even \u003cstrong\u003esmaller, lighter, and more portable\u003c\/strong\u003e! Instead of using a latch and the Arduino's PWM pins, we have a \u003cstrong\u003efully-dedicated PWM driver chip \u003c\/strong\u003eonboard. This chip handles all the motor and speed controls over I2C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComes with\u003c\/strong\u003e an assembled \u0026amp; tested FeatherWing, terminal blocks \u0026amp; plain header. Some soldering is required to assemble the headers on. \u003cstrong\u003eStacking headers not included\u003c\/strong\u003e, but we are available here. \u003cstrong\u003eFeather and motors are not included\u003c\/strong\u003e but we have lots of motors in the shop. You can use any DC or stepper motors that run from 4.5-13.5VDC and draw under 1.2A per coil. You'll likely also need to provide some external power supply for your motors, since its not suggested you run motors from the Feather's lipoly battery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince the FeatherWing only uses the I2C (SDA \u0026amp; SCL pins), it \u003cstrong\u003eworks with any and all Feathers\u003c\/strong\u003e. You can stack it with any other FeatherWing or with itself (just make sure you have each wing with a unique I2C address) Check out our range of Feather boards here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/B-brDrnMXqY?si=qxH0jzTQAoXoc2QL\u0026amp;start=527\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 full H-Bridges: the TB6612 chipset provides 1.2A per bridge with thermal shutdown protection, internal kickback protection diodes.
