N20 DC Motor with Magnetic Encoder - 6V with 1:100 Gear Ratio
N20-format 6V geared DC motor with 1:100 reduction and built-in magnetic quadrature encoder for closed-loop control. Higher reduction than the 1:50 variant gives more torque and lower output speed.
Pinout
- White motor lead
Motor drive lead. Adafruit product page states the white and red wires connect to the motor driver and can be PWM driven through an H-bridge for speed/direction.
Type · powerVoltage · Motor supply 4.5V to 6V DC nominal, source-backed by Adafruit product page. - Red motor lead
