Hi there,

I have a set up with a Pico W operating 5x coin motors via PWM, with a regulator and Mosfets. I’m searching for a way to make this device smaller. I wondered if there’s a Pi board with inbuilt regulator and Mosfets? The coin motor being used is: VC1018B001L and information is received from PicoDev transceiver 915Mhz which is used to calculate the PWM

Hi @Mitchell258024, looks like things are going pretty well and we’re just up to integrating the project to become smaller, nice! 🙂

I’m not sure if there’s an exact product that suits what you’re looking for, but maybe I can suggest the next best thing:

> **[Makerverse Protoboard for Raspberry Pi Pico](https://core-electronics.com.au/makerverse-protoboard-for-raspberry-pi-pico.html)**
>
> The centre of your next project. Mount your RPi Pico with headers, or solder directly to the protoboard.

You could mount a pico onto this purpose-designed protoboard and BYO MOSFETS to the party - essentially building exactly what you need. The Pico can be mounted with headers, or surface-mount soldered directly to the protoboard 🙂

I’ve had a look at a [VC1018B001L datasheet](https://www.vybronics.com/wp-content/uploads/datasheet-files/Vybronics-VC1018B001L-datasheet.pdf) and apparently it only draws about 85mA so a [2N7000](https://core-electronics.com.au/n-channel-mosfet-2n7000.html) ought to work just fine.

Hope this helps!  
Sam
