Quick Overview

This DIYables 1030 coin vibration motor is a compact disc-shaped vibrating motor measuring 10mm in diameter and 3mm thick, delivering haptic feedback for notifications and alerts in a pancake form factor. It's rated for 3V operation with a working range of 2V to 5V, making it compatible with Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi systems.

The motor has flexible red (+) and blue (-) lead wires for easy soldering into circuits. Since it draws more current than a GPIO pin can safely supply, it should be driven through a transistor or motor driver module rather than connected directly to a microcontroller pin, and works with both Arduino IDE and MicroPython development environments.

This listing includes 5 coin vibration motors, ideal for wearable tech, smartwatches, gaming controllers, and IoT alarm and notification projects where a slim, low-profile vibration motor is needed.

Key Features

COMPATIBLE HARDWARE

  • Arduino boards (UNO, Mega, Nano, etc.) — GPIO pin with transistor or motor driver module
  • ESP32 development boards — GPIO pin with transistor or motor driver module
  • ESP8266 boards (NodeMCU, Wemos D1, etc.) — GPIO pin with transistor or motor driver module
  • Raspberry Pi (all models) — GPIO pin with transistor or motor driver module
  • Wearable and smartwatch projects — Compact form factor for enclosure-constrained builds
  • Any microcontroller with digital output — Requires a driver circuit; do not connect the motor directly to a GPIO pin

※ NOTE THAT:

This motor draws more current than a microcontroller GPIO pin can safely supply. Drive it using a transistor (e.g. NPN with a flyback diode) or a motor driver module, not a direct GPIO connection.
