Waveshare DC Motor Driver Module for Raspberry Pi Pico Driving up to 4x DC Motors

This is Waveshare DC Motor Driver Module for Raspberry Pi Pico.

This DC motor driver has been designed specifically for the Raspberry Pi Pico and can PWM control up to 4 DC motors at a constant current of 1.2A (3.2A peak).

Power input between 6-12V can be applied, which conveniently powers the Raspberry Pi Pico thanks to the onboard 5V regulator. An on/off switch and power indicator LED add to this convenience, alongside a breakout section for unused GPIO pins.

Pico will need to have male headers pins to it with the pins pointing downwards and a USB cable to power up Click here Below for PICO with Header Pin & Power cable
