Controlling Two SparkFun IoT Brushless Motor Driver Boards via Single USB-C Connection

Hi everyone,

We’ve recently integrated the SparkFun IoT Brushless Motor Driver (ESP32 WROOM, TMC6300) (SKU: ROB-22132) into our project, and we’re aiming to control two BLDC motors independently.

Ideally, we’d like to manage both motors using a single USB-C connection to a host device. Is it possible to daisy-chain two of these boards for this purpose? If so, could anyone share guidance, tips, or relevant documentation on how to set this up?

Thanks in advance for your help!

We don’t have an example for that, but in theory yes you could…you could send info to the scond board over UART, i2c, BLE, etc…but you’d need to add code to the example we do have Example - Basic - Hookup Guide - SparkFun IoT Brushless Motor Driver and combine it with a basic TX/RX example’s code (like the esp32 bluetooth one, or its serial one, etc) to make a frankenstein version of what’ll work for your use-case
