These durable (but affordable!) gearbox motors (also known as 'TT' motors) are an easy, low-cost way to get your projects moving. This is a TT DC Bi-Metal Gearbox Motor with a gear ratio of 1:90 about double of the 'standard' 1:48 ratio.
One of the two brushed DC motor drive terminals. The Adafruit product page states this is a basic motor where voltage goes in and rotation goes out, powered from 3VDC to 6VDC; reversing polarity reverses motor direction.
The other brushed DC motor drive terminal. Use with Motor terminal A from a DC motor driver or supply; no encoder, speed control, or positional feedback is built in according to the Adafruit product page.
