Product Description
The N20 12V 60RPM Micro Metal Gear Motor with Encoder, which is designed to work at 12 V. However, this type of motor can also run at different voltages, both higher and lower than the nominal one. The acceptable voltage range is 3 – 12 V, and the motor can start rotating with as little as 0.5 V.
Using voltages lower than 3 V may not be effective and using voltages higher than 12 V may reduce the motor’s lifespan. The micro metal gear motors come in various gear ratios, from 5:1 to 1000:1. All of them have the same size, except for the ones with a 1000:1 gear ratio. This means that you can easily replace one motor with another if you need a different gear ratio for your project.

Frequently Asked Questions
What voltage range can I use for this motor?
This motor runs nominally at 12 V but operates effectively from 3 V to 12 V. It can start turning with as little as 0.5 V, though torque and speed increase with higher voltage.
How is the encoder wired and used?
The encoder provides two quadrature output channels for direction and speed feedback. It comes with a 140 mm test wire, typically four conductors: VCC, GND, Channel A and Channel B, compatible with most microcontroller input pins.
Can I swap this with other N20 gear ratios?
Yes. All N20 micro metal gear motors up to 500:1 share the same gearbox dimensions, so you can replace this 60 RPM unit with another ratio from Zbotic without modifying your mounting setup.
