SparkFun Qwiic Motor Driver Kit

The SparkFun Qwiic Motor Driver Kit is a comprehensive package that provides all the essential components required for a motor-driven project. The kit includes a Qwiic Motor Driver, a 100mm Qwiic cable, a pair of hobby gearmotors, and a LiPo battery to serve as a power supply.

The Qwiic Motor Driver is a powerful tool, featuring a 4245 PSOC and 2-channel motor ports. It's designed to communicate over I²C, making the setup of a robotic project faster and easier than ever. With the Qwiic system and screw terminals for motor and power hook-up, there's no need for soldering to connect it to your system.

The Qwiic Motor Driver delivers 1.2A steady state drive per channel (1.5A peak) and offers 127 levels of DC drive strength, making it ideal for small DC motor driver needs. It operates on 3.3V logic, so a logic level converter is necessary for interfacing with 5V.

The I²C address of the Qwiic Motor Driver is 0x5D, but it is also jumper selectable to 0x58, 0x59, 0x5A, 0x5B, and up to 0x63. With a range of Qwiic enabled microcontroller boards available, you can choose the one that best suits your project needs.

The SparkFun Qwiic Connect System, an ecosystem of I²C sensors, actuators, shields and cables, is designed to make prototyping faster and less prone to error. All Qwiic-enabled boards use a common 1mm pitch, 4-pin JST connector, reducing required PCB space and ensuring you can't connect it incorrectly due to polarized connections.

The kit includes:

• SparkFun Qwiic Motor Driver
• Hobby Gearmotor - 140 RPM (pair)
• Flexible Qwiic Cable - 100mm
• Lithium Ion Battery - 1250mAh (IEC62133 Certified)
