The DRV8412 Digital Motor Control (DMC) kit (DRV8412-C2-KIT), provides a great way to learn and experiment
with digital control of Brushed DC and Stepper motors.
The DRV8412 Digital Motor Control Kit contains:
• F28035 controlCARD
• DRV8412 DMC board with slot for the controlCARD
• 2 brushed DC motors, 8-wire bi-polar stepper motor
• 24V 2.5A DC Power Adapter
• USB Cable, USB Stick with Quick Start GUI, Guide, and links to install controlSUITE (which includes all
documentation and source code) and CCStudio Integrated Development Environment
WARNING
This EVM should be used only by qualified engineers and technicians who are familiar with
the risks associated with handling electrical and mechanical components, systems and
subsystems. The EVM operates at voltages and currents that can result in electrical shock,
fire hazard and/or personal injury if not properly handled or applied. Users must use the
equipment with necessary caution and employ appropriate safeguards to avoid serious
injury. Users must not touch any part of the EVM while energized.
