The board can deliver a continuous 1.2 A (1.5 A peak) per motor, or a continuous 2.4 A (3 A peak) to a single motor when configured with both channels connected in parallel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe board uses GPIO pins 5, 6, 12, and 13 to control the motor driver, making use of the Raspberry Pi’s hardware PWM outputs, although the pin mappings can be customized if the defaults are not convenient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough the DRV8835 itself works with a minimum motor supply voltage of 0 V, this board’s reverse-protection circuit limits the minimum to 1.5 V.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual-H-bridge motor driver: can drive two DC motors or one bipolar stepper motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotor supply voltage: 1.5 V to 11 V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLogic supply voltage 2 V to 7 V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput current: 1.2 A continuous (1.5 A peak) per motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotor outputs can be paralleled to deliver 2.4 A continuous (3 A peak) to a single motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePWM operation up to 250 kHz (ultrasonic frequencies allow for quieter motor operation)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo possible interface modes: PHASE\/ENABLE (default – one pin for direction, another for speed) or IN\/IN (outputs mostly mirror inputs)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoard can optionally power the Raspberry Pi base directly through add-on regulator (not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/pololu\/drv8835-motor-driver-rpi\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePython library\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGPIO pin mappings can be customized if the default mappings are not convenient\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReverse-voltage protection on motor power supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnder-voltage lockout and protection against over-current and over-temperature\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUsing the motor driver\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull setup and usage instructions can be found \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pololu.com\/product\/2753\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note:\u003c\/strong\u003e This product can get hot enough to burn you long before the chip overheats.
