With the Performance DC Bricklet you are able to control one DC brushed motor (max. 36V and 10A (continuously)). With the provided API for many programming languages you can control the direction, velocity and acceleration of the connected motor. Additionally, the drive mode can be switched between Drive/Brake and Drive/Coast (see Drive Modes).
Besides methods to control the connected motor the API provide the possibility to measure current consumption or the input voltage. In case of overtemperature and overcurrent callbacks can be triggered.
The Bricklet comes with two opto-coupled inputs that can be configured as end-stops.
Six user-configurable status LEDs can be used to show the GPIO state, motor direction, errors and more.
