5V Stepper Motor with ULN2003 Driver Board Set

5V Stepper Motor with ULN2003 Driver Board Set.

This ULN2003 Driver Board is designed to operate small stepper motors at voltages between 5V and 12V, at a maximum current of 500mA. It is Arduino compatible and is typically used with Arduino UNO boards, but often requires a separate power supply to avoid damaging the Arduino board.

This set is a perfect choice for building your own 3D printer or CNC machine. The Driver board could function as a driver for other devices as well, as listed below in the " ULN2003 Chip Features". It is pretty self-explanatory that buying this set would be a very wise choice.
