Arduino MKR Motor Carrier Sale

Arduino MKR Motor Carrier

Want to connect several motors and sensors to your mechatronic project? The Arduino MKR Motor Carrier is the perfect companion for Arduino MKR boards as it will allow you to rapidly prototype and build your projects.

The MKR Motor Carrier is an MKR add-on board designed to control servo, DC, and stepper motors. The Carrier can also be used to connect other actuators and sensors via a series of 3-pin male headers.

To use the Carrier, you will need to plug an MKR board (the MKR1000, MKR Zero, or other) into the headers at the centre of the board. Make sure the MKR board is connected in the proper direction. You can do this by making sure the info printed on the side of the headers matches both the MKR board and the Motor Carrier.
