Hardware function  

Change Default maximum drive current  

 
The default maximum drive current of each channel is 200mA, see the front picture of the board 

 

 
Each channel (CH1,CH2) has been added a resistor, and each value of resistor (R5,R12) is 1 Ω, 
so the maximum drive current is 200mA according to the following equation
