How to fix MC33926 Dual Motor Driver for Raspberry Pi?
I recently purchased my MC33926 Dual Motor Driver for Raspberry Pi, wired it up to some motors, completed the code and found nothing to happen. I've consulted the schematics to ensure my wiring isn't off and I'm using the right pins and scanned the internet for example code to follow from. Unfortunately, the best I could find was in French so that was slightly irritating.
Ultimately, this is the code I came up with that should have caused one of the motors to turn:
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
#set GPIO pins
m1PWM = 12;
m1EN = 22;
m1DIR = 24;
#set GPIO direction (IN / OUT)
GPIO.setup(m1PWM, GPIO.OUT)
GPIO.setup(m1EN, GPIO.OUT)
GPIO.setup(m1DIR, GPIO.OUT)
#ENABLE MOTOR 1
GPIO.output(m1EN, True)
#SET DIRECTION
GPIO.output(m1DIR, True)
#PWD to set acceleration level
p = GPIO.PWM(m1PWM, 10000)
p.start(10)
Is there a problem with my code that is causing it to not run the motors as I would have expected? Why am I encountering these errors?
