Hello friends, I hope you all are doing well. Welcome to the 9th tutorial of our Raspberry Pi programming course. In the last chapter, we generated a PWM signal from our Raspberry Pi to control the brightness of an LED. We also studied different functions used in Python to perform PWM. In this chapter, we'll get a bit advanced with PWM and use it to control the speed and direction of a DC motor with the help of a motor driver IC.
To control the speed & direction of the DC Motor, we will:
Design a Circuit Diagram.Write Python code.
Components RequiredWe will use the following components to control the DC motor speed:
Raspberry Pi 4.DC Motor.Motor driver IC(L293D).Breadboard.
Jumper wires.
Controlling DC Motor speed wi ...
