Power the ProDriver via the Qwiic Redboard?

Qwiic System
1

Is it possible to power the ProDriver board via pass through from powering the Qwiic Redboard?

My setup is basically Example 1 of this page: https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/sp … o-examples

Qwiic Redboard controlling a stepper motor via the ProDriver.

I’d love to run one microUSB power cable into the Redboard and be able to power the whole setup, versus also having a power cable running into the ProDriver too… Is this possible?

thank you,

Jon

No, the pro driver/stepper assembly has a 2A minimum for current draw https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/sp … e-overview (reboards can push ~600mA)
