Please see the DRV8825 Stepper Motor Driver Carrier product page for more information about the driver. ## Pricing - **Price:** $28.45 (inc GST) — $25.86 AUD, exc GST - **Quantity discounts:** 10+ $24.83 (exc GST) · 25+ $24.05 (exc GST) ## Availability & dispatch - Available with a lead time — expect dispatch between Aug 24 and Aug 26. ## How to buy - **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=POLOLU-2982:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart. - **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/POLOLU-2982:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.) - **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there. - **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works) - **Payment methods, purchase orders, policies and contact details:** https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt ## Description This version of Pololu's DRV8825 Stepper Motor Driver Carrier ships with 0.1"-pitch male header pins installed as shown in the main product picture, so no soldering is required to use it with an appropriate 16-pin socket or solderless breadboard.
