Gravity: Dual Bipolar Stepper Motor Shield for Arduino (DRV8825)

SKU: DRI0023

Do you want to do stepper motor projects like a drafting instrument, 3D printer, or auto curtain? Regular stepper motors are hard to drive, but this stepper motor shield lets you easily drive 2 via 6 digital I/O’s. It’s compatible with Arduino UNO R3, supports Xbee/Xbee-form Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/RF modules, has screwless PC terminals, code switches for driving modes/speeds, and interfaces: 6 Analog, 8 Digital, I2C.
