“Advertised as a stepper motor driver... but it's misleading. After failing to use it with a 5v, 5-wire unipolar stepper motor (which it is supposed to be able to do according to the provided documentation/examples), the provided circuit-python code cannot make the motor run in reverse, and/or it vibrates more than it spins...
After digging into the issue, I found out that H-bridges are actually not recommended to drive stepper motors, because they do not provide current limitation. So it's very misleading for beginners such as me.”
“Fairly easy to wire up to a pi pico following the pinouts in the tutorial, and the example code only needed a little bit of tweeking for the board. I'm only running one 5v stepper motor so I'm not pushing the motor driver very hard, but it seems very reliable.”
