lgtm
Seve
it's wayyy too big tho lol
Seve
i would shrink it but otherwise yea looks good
Seve
actually
Seve
aren't you missing output pins
Seve
yea this is totally wrong
Seve
you need A+, A-, B+, B- no?
Rishabh
Did multiple rounds of review from codex
Rishabh
Shared an attachment
Seve
how would you plug in a FOUR WIRE stepper motor
Seve
oh
Seve
you use two terminals for a single motor
Seve
yea your silkscreen is really bad
Seve
there is no "motor a" and "motor b", there's ONE motor with A+/A- and B+/B-
Seve
i think it's not clear- usually that would be a single wire terminal, but even then the silkscreen is super confusing A+/A- is COIL A and B+/B- is COIL B of a single motor
Seve
you also called it a DUAL MOTOR
Seve
it is not a dual motor driver, it is a single STEPPER motor driver
Seve
or am i wrong
Seve
is this a brushed motor driver? I don't think so
Seve
i'm pretty sure there's a lot of confusion
Seve
this is a single stepper motor driver
Seve
and there's a ton of stuff mislabeled
Seve
it's not a dual motor driver
Seve
the fact that codex didn't tell you this indicates it's cooked
Seve
also i would shrink the board a lot tbh
Rishabh
https://imrishabh18--rp2040-motor-controller-v1-0-10.tscircuit.app/#file=index.circuit.tsx Have shrunk the size, and the terminal is combined to one 4pin terminal to for nema 17
Seve
still very wide tbh
Seve
but looking good
Seve
one sec will review

Seve
Looks good!!!
