Module DCMotor
Description
Module DCMotor is a DC motor driver module in the M5Stack stackable module series. It integrates the MEGA328 and L293DD chips, featuring 4 motor drive channels. It uses a DC power input design for power supply and automatically powers the M5Core on top via the M5-Bus. Using Module DCMotor, you can easily and quickly drive RJ12 interface encoder motors, such as LEGO EV3 motors (this product is not affiliated with or endorsed by LEGO, LEGO is a trademark of the LEGO Group).
