RoboClaw Motor Controllers

The RoboClaw Solo motor controllers from Basicmicro (formerly Ion Motion Control) can control a single brushed DC motor using USB serial, TTL serial, RC, or analog inputs. An integrated quadrature decoder make it easy to create a closed-loop speed control system. They feature an all-metal case and four unterminated 8″ (20 cm), 12 AWG leads (two for power and two for the motor). This version can supply a continuous 30 A (45 A peak) and operates up to 34 V.

This translucent red plastic case with integrated fan is intended for use with 2x15A, 2x30A, 2x45A, and ST 2x45A RoboClaws. The case serves to protect the RoboClaw while the fan adds cooling, allowing the motor controller to deliver higher continuous currents and sustain peak currents longer.

The VClamp allows RoboClaw and MCP motor controllers to be used with switching power supplies by dissipating excess regenerative energy through a connected external resistor (not included). The VClamp connects directly to the motor power supply and gets logic power and signals from the RoboClaw or MCP controller. The clamping voltage is set in the Basicmicro Motion Studio software, and the board can handle peak voltages and currents up to 60 V and 60 A. A status LED lets you know when the voltage is being clamped.
