Description
The module allows you to control four DC motors (DC) or two stepper motors using Arduino kits. The system allows to adjust the direction and speed of rotation of the motors with a current consumption of up to 600 mA.
Power
To prevent damage to the computer's port and the Arduino module through the consumption of a relatively large current by the motors, power supply line from USB, was separated from the power of the engines themselves. The manufacturer recommends connecting an external power source. For this purpose, you can use the power supply DC or any rechargeable battery. The user can also separately power a module of Arduino and the Motor Shield. It is necessary to disconnect the jumper PWR_IMP. This may be recommended when the supply voltage is above 12 V.
