Stepper Motor Driver Expansion Board for A4988/DRV8825

Stepper Motor Driver Expansion Board for A4988/DRV8825

Simplify your stepper motor projects with this handy Stepper Motor Driver Expansion Board. This carrier board is designed to host popular “stepstick” style drivers like the A4988 and DRV8825, providing a much easier and more organized way to control your stepper motors.

This expansion board breaks out all the necessary connections from the stepstick driver into user-friendly headers and connectors. A key feature is the onboard 3-position DIP switch, which allows you to set the microstepping resolution (e.g., full, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 step) quickly and easily, without the need for messy jumper wires on your breadboard.

With a standard 4-pin JST-XH connector for the motor output and clear headers for power and control signals (Step, Direction, Enable), this board is perfect for building clean and reliable motion control systems for your 3D printer, CNC machine, or robotics projects.

Note: This is an expansion board only. The A4988 or DRV8825 driver module is not included and must be purchased separately.

Key Features:

• Compatibility: Sockets compatible with A4988, DRV8825, and other common stepstick drivers.
• Easy Microstep Setting: Onboard 3-position DIP switch for selecting step resolution.
• Simple Connections: Clearly labeled headers for power, STEP, DIR, and EN signals.
• Motor Connector: 4-pin JST-XH connector for easy motor connection.
• Input Voltage: Supports 8V-35V DC input (depends on the installed driver).

Applications:

This board is an excellent tool for prototyping, testing, or building permanent installations for 3D printers, CNC machines, laser cutters, robotic arms, and any project that uses A4988 or DRV8825 stepper motor drivers.
