Introduction
This Grove - MIni I2C motor driver included two DRV8830, The DRV8830 provides an
integrated motor driver solution for battery-powered toys, printers, and other low-voltage or
battery-powered motion control applications. The module has two H-bridge drivers, and can
drive two DC motors or two winding of stepper motors, as well as other loads like solenoids.It
requires an onboard 5V voltage regulator which can power the I2C bus. All driver lines are diode
protected from back EMF.It features two LEDs for fault indicator and four LEDs to indicate
which direction each motor is running. GROVE system plug and I2C interface enables you to
daisy-chain the driver with many other devices.
