A library for the Grove - Motor Driver(TB6612FNG)

Grove - Motor Driver(TB6612FNG)

This is the Arduino library of Grove - Motor Driver(TB6612FNG), based on I2C.

Examples

dc_motor

This example shows how to drive a dc motor. Connect a dc motor to the same channel(A1 and A2, or B1 and B2) first. Add extra power supply to VIN and GND if necessary. Then upload this example to your arduino board.

You must have found there are two similar function: dcMotorBrake and dcMotorStop. The difference between them is that dcMotorBrake will give a reverse force to make the motor stop

stepper_motor_2phase

This example shows how to drive a 2phase stepper motor.

Different with dc motor, there is just one function to drive a stepper: stepperRun. And our library offers 4 ways to drive: FULL_STEP, WAVE_DRIVE, HALF_STEP and MICRO_STEPPING.

More informations about stepper motor: Wikipedia and What is full step, half step, and microstepping.
