8 x DC or 4 x Stepper Motor Hat

rpi-8x-small-dc-motor

As mentioned in a previous post I could extend this to 8x DC motors. I realized that the screw terminals I used had a smaller 2.54 pitch version. Connecting 8xL9110 to drive 8 DC motors or 4 Stepper motors are easy and straight forward. This is a draft as I was keen on looking at terminators, but we will add some protection logic and order the Hat.

I have a personal preference to keep motor controllers away from Raspberry PI, but it is quite handy to have a multi motor driver for small motors. I have a robot arm with 5 DC motors that this board is perfect for.
