## Description

The DDSM315 is a direct drive servo motor from Waveshare that combines a brushless outer rotor motor (PMSM), encoder, and servo driver into a single compact unit. By eliminating a traditional gearbox reducer, it achieves zero-backlash positioning with ultra-low noise (≤50 dB), making it well suited for robotics and RC vehicle applications. The motor communicates via RS485 bus, allowing multiple units to be coordinated on a single communication line. It supports current loop, position loop, and velocity loop operating modes, and includes Hall position detection and over-current protection. Key Features Direct Drive (No Gearbox) – Zero backlash, high precision, reduced mechanical complexity All-in-One Design – PMSM motor, 12-bit encoder, and servo driver integrated Ultra-Low Noise – ≤50 dB during operation RS485 Bus Communication – Daisy-chain multiple motors on one bus Three Operating Modes – Current loop, position loop, and velocity loop IP54 Rated – Dust and splash-water protection Over-Current Protection – With Hall position detection Specifications Rated Voltage – 18 V DC (compatible with 5S LiPo) Speed Constant – 17.5 RPM/V No-Load Speed – 315 ±10 RPM Rated Speed – 200 RPM Rated Torque – 0.55 N·m Stall Torque – 1.1 N·m Encoder Resolution – 12-bit Communication – RS485 bus Protection Rating – IP54 Operating Temperature – −20°C to 45°C Ideal For RC car and vehicle builds Home and commercial robotics UGV robot chassis Multi-motor coordinated systems Package Contents 1× DDSM315 direct drive servo motor Resources Waveshare Wiki — DDSM315
