Motor controllers
Motors controllers can control the speed, the position or the torque of a motor providing electrical power and adequate signal. Pay attention to the type of controller, the expected features and motor power. Our team is there to advise you, feel free to contact us !
Sparkfun has released its version of the DC motor driver based on the famous TB6612FNG circuit, and the result is appealing: you can control 2 DC motors separately or simultaneously in one of 4 function modes!
Let your Sabertooth control and supply two DC motors, a microcontroller and a couple of servos, and your robot will reach new highs in manoeuvrability and autonomy!
A new and improved version of the Easy Driver board, the Big Easy Driver by SparkFun can drive bipolar stepper motors at up to 2 amps per phase.
Sabertooth 2x32 is a dual channel motor driver capable of supplying 32A to two motors–with peak currents up to 64A. It can be operated from radio control, analogue, TTL serial or USB inputs. It uses regenerative drive and will boost your robot!
Probably one of the best drivers in its class – the Sabertooth 2x 25 A Motor Driver is powerful, versatile, extremely reliable and allows you to control 2 motors at once while recharging your supply batteries!
This dual motor driver from Pololu is based on Freescale’s MC33926 full H-bridge. It has a 5 – 28V operating range and can deliver almost 3A continuously (5A peak) to each of its two motor channels. The dual motor driver works with 3 – 5V logic levels, supports up to 20kHz PWM and has many protections.
Version 2.0 of the Adafruit Motor/Stepper/Servo Shield for Arduino Kit
The Sabertooth 2x5 motor driver can supply two DC brushed motors with up to 5A each continuously. It’s the perfect solution for small robots!
The Ardumoto Shield is an easy-to-use dual motor controller for Arduino board. Combined with an Arduino board, the Ardumoto makes a fantastic controller platform for small mobile autonomous robots.
The Sabertooth family is back with its most ambitious motor driver: 2 x 60A for controlling robots up to 450 kg with the necessary sensitivity!
Precision navigation, increased autonomy and varied operating modes: the SyRen 10 motor driver is one of the most efficient for medium-sized robots.
Simple motor controller PCB to control two 2A motors
The famous SyRen regenerative motor driver is returning in a 25A version: fully secured and highly versatile, it gives you extended control over your robot’s movements.
Are you sure you’re prepared for the full power of the T’Rex? This Arduino-compatible RS036 controller might not look like the Jurassic predator, but it nonetheless offers some quite magnificent possibilities: for example controlling 2 motors at once!
Want to control your motors and servos with greater freedom and precision? Dimension Engineering’s Kangaroo motion controller has everything to satisfy your needs: compatible with Sabertooth and SyRen, it allows you to control position and/or speed without skidding off the track.
A rich and useful board to use on your Rover5 based contraptions.
The Servo Controller Mini Maestro 12-Channel allows you to drive your servos using one of three interfaces: USB, serial TTL, and embedded scripts. It provides fine-grained speed and acceleration control thanks to its very high resolution (0.25µs).
The Servo Controller Mini Maestro 24-Channel allows you to drive your servos using one of three interfaces: USB, serial TTL, and embedded scripts. It provides fine-grained speed and acceleration control thanks to its very high resolution (0.25µs).
The ArbotiX-M Robocontroller allows you to drive your robot using Dynamixel servo motors.
DC motor controller with 4 interface modes: USB, logic level, analog voltage and RC.
Adafruit doesn’t do things by halves, as proven by this 16-channel driver capable alone of transforming your peaceful robot into a giant spider or even a mobile disco.
The JRK 12v12 motor controller with feedback allow you to command a middle size brushed DC motor with one of the four available interfaces: USB, analog voltage, digital command or radio command. You can also enslave the motor in closed-loop.
The Servo Controller Micro Maestro 6-Channel allows you to drive your servos using one of three interfaces: USB, serial TTL, and embedded scripts. It provides fine-grained speed and acceleration control thanks to its very high resolution (0.25µs).
This controller allows you to command independently up to 8 servomotors with a great precision. Moreover, it is very compact to be easily embedded in your mobile robots.
