easy access to TB6612FNG motor controller on Arduino Due

Hardware Arduino Due
#1

I do not need access to SPI pins (see this thread) but just easy access to TB6612FNG motor controller. So I used Uno Proto shield.

  • removed plastic from motor controller (with little screw driver)
  • two drops of superglue mounted controller below shield
  • controller now sits just above Due CPU
  • controller pins are easily accessible

Why only 2 drops of superglue? In case controller gets damaged, exchanging it with a new one becomes easy.
