Detailed Description

A motor class for one channel of the DRV8847.

Objects of this class can be used to apply PWM to a given DC motor.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

__init__()

def motor.Motor.__init__	(		self,
			PWM_tim,
			IN1_pin,
			IN2_pin,
			motorNum
	)

Initializes and returns an object associated with a DC Motor.

Objects of this class should not be instantiated directly. Instead create a DRV8847 object and use that to create Motor objects using the method DRV8847.motor().

Member Function Documentation

set_duty()

def motor.Motor.set_duty	(		self,
			duty
	)

Set the PWM duty cycle for the motor channel.

This method sets the duty cycle to be sent to the motor to the given level. Positive values cause effort in one direction, negative values in the opposite direction.

Parameters

duty	A signed number holding the duty cycle of the PWM signal sent to the motor
