150 RPM Geared Motor
150 RPM Geared Motor
The 150 RPM Geared Motor is a compact, high-torque, and high-reliability motor designed for various Internet of Things (IoT) applications, robotics, and automation projects. This motor is a type of DC Gear Motor, which combines a DC motor with a gearbox to achieve high torque and low speed.
The primary function of the 150 RPM Geared Motor is to provide a stable and controlled rotational motion to a load, such as a wheel, gear, or other mechanical components. The motor operates on a DC power supply, and the gearbox amplifies the motor's torque while reducing its speed, making it suitable for applications requiring high torque and low speed.

Code Examples
### Example 1: Basic Motor Control using Arduino
Using the 150 RPM Geared Motor with an Arduino board to rotate the motor in a clockwise direction for 5 seconds, then reverse direction for 5 seconds.
```cpp
const int dirPin = 2; // Direction pin
const int clkPin = 3; // Clock pin
void setup() {
pinMode(dirPin, OUTPUT);
pinMode(clkPin, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
// Rotate clockwise for 5 seconds
digitalWrite(dirPin, HIGH);
for (int i = 0; i < 5000; i++) {
digitalWrite(clkPin, HIGH);
delayMicroseconds(500);
digitalWrite(clkPin, LOW);
delayMicroseconds(500);
}
// Rotate counter-clockwise for 5 seconds
digitalWrite(dirPin, LOW);
for (int i = 0; i < 5000; i++) {
digitalWrite(clkPin, HIGH);
delayMicroseconds(500);
digitalWrite(clkPin, LOW);
delayMicroseconds(500);
}
}
```
### Example 2: Motor Speed Control using Raspberry Pi and Python
Using the 150 RPM Geared Motor with a Raspberry Pi to control the motor speed using PWM (Pulse Width Modulation).
```python
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import time
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
DIR_PIN = 17 # Direction pin
CLK_PIN = 23 # Clock pin
GPIO.setup(DIR_PIN, GPIO.OUT)
GPIO.setup(CLK_PIN, GPIO.OUT)
# Set direction pin high for clockwise rotation
GPIO.output(DIR_PIN, GPIO.HIGH)
# Set initial motor speed (50% duty cycle)
pwm = GPIO.PWM(CLK_PIN, 50)
pwm.start(50)
try:
while True:
# Change motor speed every 2 seconds
for dc in range(0, 101, 10):
pwm.ChangeDutyCycle(dc)
time.sleep(2)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
pwm.stop()
GPIO.cleanup()
```
