Driving DC Motors with Microcontrollers

DroneBot Workshop via YouTube

Overview

Learn how to drive DC motors using 7 different motor driver modules with an Arduino or any microcontroller. This course covers hookup, coding, and demonstrations with motors of various sizes. By the end of the course, you will understand three methods for controlling speed and direction, be able to swap drivers, and use a single sketch for different motor sizes. The course teaches simple code for motors and introduces libraries that simplify coding for motor drivers. The teaching method includes practical demonstrations and explanations of each motor driver module. This course is intended for individuals interested in robotics, electronics, or microcontroller programming.
