ASD2302-R TINY CIRCUITS

Dual Motor TinyShield - ASD2302-R tinycircuits.com/collections/motors/products/dual-motor-tinyshield DESCRIPTION The Dual Motor TinyShield allows you to drive two independently controlled DC brushed motors from your TinyDuino. Create your own tiny robots or drones Using two of the super miniature but very powerful 2mm x 2mm TI DRV8837 Motor Driver (H-Bridge) IC, this shield will allow for up to 1.8A per channel and operate motors between 1.8 to 11V. This TinyShield includes a built in motor controller to make driving motors simple and uses the TinyDuino I2C interface - saving GPIO pins on the TinyDuino processor for other tasks. An easy-to-use Arduino library is provided to control this. Since this TinyShield uses I2C for communication, multiple Dual Motor TinyShields can be stacked on the same TinyDuino board (up to four Dual Motor TinyShields). There are resistors that can be changed to set the I2C address. The board includes bypass capacitors and heatsinks the chips to a large plane on the bottom side of the board to help with heat dissipation. An external power connection is supplied to connect to your motor power source. All the 1/3connections to the motors use standard 0.1 spaced holes that you can solder your motor leads into. The TI DRV8837 has one H-bridge driver consisting of N-channel power MOSFETs to drive a DC motor, one winding of a stepper motor, or other devices like solenoids. An internal charge pump generates needed gate-drive voltages. There are internal shutdown functions for overcurrent protection, short-circuit protection, undervoltage lockout and over temperature. The DRV8837 can supply up to 1.8 A of output current. It operates on a motor power-supply voltage from 1.8 V to 11 V . Note: While the DRV8837 supports 1.8A 11V, we highly recommend operating under 500mA 5V per channel unless you have some really good heat sinking in place.

However, the I2C address needs to be different for each TinyShield. This can be changed with resistors R1 and R2 (soldering is required for this). 2/3
