Description

Unit Roller485 is a brushless DC motor motion execution kit with integrated control functions, designed for efficient motion control. The product supports 6-16V DC power input (via the PWR485 interface) or 5V input (via the Grove interface), and can automatically adjust the power coefficient to ensure optimal performance.

It features a built-in FOC closed-loop drive system, using a 3504 200KV brushless motor, with a maximum continuous phase current of 0.5A and a short-term peak of 1A without forced cooling. The driver uses a magnetic encoder as feedback, supporting current, speed, and position triple-loop control to ensure precise control. The device offers an optional electrical slip ring, allowing the top Grove interface to remain connected to the bottom even during 360° rotation, enabling additional modules to be expanded on the top while ensuring power and data transmission for the rotating part.

Additionally, the device is equipped with a 0.66-inch OLED display on the back to show real-time status. It also includes built-in RGB indicators and function buttons for easy human-machine interaction. The product's top and base designs feature LEGO-compatible mounting holes and M3 screw holes for quick assembly and integration. Unit Roller485 is fully open-source in both hardware and software, supporting motion control and parameter adjustment via RS485 or I2C buses, and provides SWD and SWO debugging interfaces, further enhancing developer flexibility. This product is widely used in robotic joints, motion control, industrial automation, and visual demonstration projects.

The main difference between Unit-Roller485 Lite and Unit-Roller485 is that Unit-Roller485 Lite does not have a slip ring expansion Grove interface or the top LEGO expansion interface.
Power supply voltage
The power supply should not exceed 16V. If the voltage exceeds 18V, the motor will display a fault code E:1, the motor will not work, and "Over Voltage" will be displayed, with the LED turning red.
