High-power brushed DC motor, 120:1 reduction gearbox, intended for operation at 4.5 V, 9.7mm-long gearbox, 3 mm-diameter D-shaped output shaft that is offset from but parallel to the motor shaft, built-in safety clutch. Pololu 1512
This is a breakout board for ON Semiconductor’s AMIS-30543 microstepping bipolar stepper motor driver, which features SPI-adjustable current limiting, 11 step modes (from full-step through 1/128-step), back-EMF feedback that can be used for stall detection or optional closed-loop control, and over-current and over-temperature protection.
Module with 13 QTRX type optocoupler with RC (digital) output. The module operates from 2.9 V to 5.5 V, detects objects at a distance of up to 40 mm. The sensor will be used in projects that require detection of changes in the ground, e.g. in linefollower robots. Pololu 4313
This add-on board enables a Raspberry Pi B+, Pi A+, Pi 2 or Pi 3 to drive a pair of brushed DC motors. Its dual MC33926 motor drivers operate from 5 V to 28 V and can deliver a continuous 3 A (5 A peak) per motor. The default pin mappings make it easy to get started using our provided software, but the board also exposes most of the driver chips’ I/O pins for more specialized applications.
Module with 7 QTRX type optocoupler with RC (digital) output. The module operates from 2.9 V to 5.5 V, detects objects at a distance of up to 40 mm. The sensor will be used in projects that require detection of changes in the ground, e.g. in linefollower robots. Pololu 4347
These aluminum gearmotor brackets let you securely mount Pololu’s 25D mm metal gearmotors to your project. The brackets are sold in pairs, and each bracket includes two M3 screws for securing the motor to the bracket. Each bracket also features seven mounting holes and twelve mounting slots for M3 or #4-size screws (not included), giving you a variety of mounting options.
Atmel ATmega32U4 microcontroller comes preloaded with an Arduino-compatible bootloader, and the board includes dual motor drivers that can deliver 1.7 A per channel to two brushed DC motors. Pololu 3119
This gearmotor is a miniature medium-power, 6 V brushed DC motor with a 297.92:1 metal gearbox. It has a cross section of 10 × 12 mm, and the D-shaped gearbox output shaft is 9 mm long and 3 mm in diameter. This version also has a 4.5 × 1 mm extended motor shaft.
