The DG01D-E is a single hobby motor with a hall speed encoder. This motor requires a voltage between 3-9V, has a gearbox ratio of 1:48 and a speed of 90RPM at 4.5V. The voltage between positive and negative is determined according to the power supply voltage of the single chip microcomputer used, generally 3.3V or 5V is used.
The hall sensor can sense the North and South poles of its magnetic plate. When the hall sensor senses the South of the magnetic plate, the hall output will result in a high level. Meanwhile the North is the inverse and, when sensed, the hall output will result a low level.
Note: Please be aware that this is a single Hobby Motor. To effectively drive a robotics project, at least two of these motors will be required. These motors are not sold in pairs!
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- encoder
- An encoder is a sensor that converts the rotation or position of a shaft, knob or dial into electrical signals, reporting movement as incremental steps and direction, or as an absolute position. It is used to track how far something has turned, which matters for precise positioning, speed control, repeatable movement, or using a rotary knob as an input.
