2-Channel 1.2A Motor Driver Shield for Arduino [Discontinued]
The Cytron Motor Driver shield can power 2 motors from your Arduino Uno, offering 3A of peak current and 1.2A of continuous current at each channel.
It is compatible with the official Arduino UNO, Mega and Leonardo, and Arduino-compatible boards such as the Maker UNO.
The shield uses a DRV8871 controller and support for both signed magnitude and locked anti-phase. This driver can handle high currents up to 3A together with auto current limit protection.
Features:
- Bi-directional control for dual brushed DC motors
- Support motor voltage from 7VDC to 30VDC
- Maximum current up to 3A peak and 1.2A continuously, each channel
- Current limit protection
- Support 3.3V and 5V logic level input
- Stackable I/O header pin
- Selectable DIP switch mode for Signed Magnitude and Locked Anti-Phase
- Quick test switch for both channel
- NO POLARITY PROTECTION for V motor
