hi all.does any know how many motors i can connect to this board.
i have an i-qbot and he has 7 motors.there no info about the volt off these motors,
but they run good on 5 volts.i extent all the wires hoping i can use ez boards,
for this robot. *blush*
The 2.5A motor controller will move 2 motors independently of each other but can only manage a total load of 2.5A so if you have 7 you need to move each by themselves you will need 4 motor controllers provided 2 motors total maximum current draw isn't over 2.5A If they are then you need a bigger motor controller which can handle the correct amount of current.
I highly suggest you read through all of the tutorials in the Learn section of the site and check out some of the tutorials in the forums too. Reading this tutorial written by me on the 2.5A motor controller would have shown you the different configurations and how many ports each controller will require.
Don't take that the wrong way, I don't mind helping, guiding or even spoon feeding members along their robot journey however if you are really serious about building an awesome robot you really should sit down for a while and learn everything about what it is you are using, doing so will help you understand everything and in turn will help you know the answers to your questions before you have them
i didn see last post so.i'm starting to read and figer out what is what.and i found that page .
mostly am very impatient man when i dont understand what am reading.
but you are right.my appolegies for being rude.seeya ,by
Don't think twice about asking if you struggle to understand something, I want you to know what it is you need to know. Believe me, it will all come together and it's all pretty simple once you get your head around it.
