The choice starts with the motion you want. For an articulated arm, an RC car steering, or a shutter, a servomotor like the SG90 or MG90S is enough: it is driven with a single PWM pin and holds a precise angle over 180°. To turn a wheel or a propeller, a gearmotor such as the JA12-N20 or a 12 V DC motor gives torque after reduction. For a displacement counted in steps (CNC, 3D printer, linear axis), you need a stepper motor: 28BYJ-48 for small loads, NEMA17 for a standard axis, NEMA23 or NEMA34 when torque needs to go up.
A motor is never connected directly to an Arduino or ESP32 board: you need a driver sized for its voltage and current.
Also think about the power supply: plan for a source able to provide the startup current, which largely exceeds the rated current. The rest of the range can be found in Sensors and robotics.
A servomotor positions itself on a limited angle (generally 180°) using a PWM signal and internal electronics. A stepper motor turns without an angle limit, step by step, and requires an external driver; it suits the repeatable movements of a machine.
No, a microcontroller pin only supplies a few tens of milliamps. You need to go through a driver (L298N, TB6612FNG, ULN2003…) and a separate power supply for the motor, with grounds connected together.
An A4988 suits moderate currents, a DRV8825 handles a bit more current and offers finer micro-stepping. For a NEMA23 or NEMA34, move to a TB6600 or a DM860H, with proper heat dissipation.
The 28BYJ-48 is a five-wire unipolar stepper; the ULN2003 is a Darlington transistor array that switches its coils in place of the microcontroller's pins. This is the most common pairing for this motor.
Torque, housing size, the presence of a gearbox or an encoder, metal gears versus plastic ones, and the brand all affect the price. A servo with metal gears costs more than a plastic model of the same size.
