The A4988 Stepper Motor Driver Controller Board – RED is a compact, high-performance motor driver module designed to control bipolar stepper motors in 3D printers, CNC machines, and embedded electronics projects. It features on-board current limiting, over-temperature shutdown, and crossover current protection, making it a safe and reliable choice for precision motion control.
This driver supports up to 16-step microstepping and offers precise current control via adjustable potentiometer. The RED version is easy to install, highly compatible with Arduino and RAMPS boards, and features clear pinout labels for Enable, Step, Direction, and Ground. It can also be used as a replacement for the DRV8825 driver (note: pay attention to orientation).
