Combining sensor + stepper motor projects?

Post by turnerejohnson »

Hi,

I'm new to Arduino and adafruit hardware, I have a design (OpenCTD: https://github.com/OceanographyforEveryone/OpenCTD) for building a conductivity and temp sensor with an Adafruit Feather M0 Adalogger, and I was wondering if I could also stack the Featherwing for a Adafruit stepper on top of the design for the openCTD (tutorial+materials: https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-ste ... eatherwing). The OpenCTD requires an M0 Feather Adalogger and the Featherwing RTC. I'm looking at circuit diagrams to see if there are hookups to the same inputs on the Adalogger, which I assume would mean I need two Feather M0s (?). How would I know about the right current/resistance/voltage to pump through a hulkified circuit like the one I'm thinking of?

Thanks so much for the help!
Turner

You would need to build your RTC Feather Wing with stacking headers so that you can stack the motor Wing on top. https://www.adafruit.com/product/2830
Stepper motor power is independent of power to the Feather and will depend on your choice of stepper motor.
