Raspberry Pi Motor Driver HAT

Motor Driver HAT for Raspberry Pi is a module designed to control 2 DC motors simultaneously with I2C communication. It has a powerful onboard chip PCA9685 which provides 12-bit hardware PWM to adjust the motor speed. The logic voltage is 3.3 V with the motor driver TB6612FNG. It can be powered from a battery through the VIN terminal which makes a better experience for the user.
