Description
The Waveshare Stepper Motor HAT type B for Raspberry Pi - powered by dual HRB8825 motor controller IC - allows operating up to two stepper motors simultaneously with a maximal motor drive current of 2.5A und provides microstepping via DIP swtiches.
This board also provides several protection features as well as an 5V regulatur to power your Raspberry Pi via GPIO connection and three different motor interfaces. Comes with development resources and manual (examples in BCM2835, wiringPi, and python). Check the documentation page of this product for further information and assistance.
