Motoron M2S Dual High-Power Motor Controllers for Arduino
The Motoron M2S family of dual high-power motor controller shields makes it easy to independently control two bidirectional, brushed DC motors with an Arduino or compatible board, such as the A-Star 32U4 Prime. Unlike most of our motor drivers and motor driver shields, the Motoron does not require any PWM outputs or timers on your Arduino. Instead, the Arduino communicates with the Motoron using I²C, so only two I/O lines are needed. Four types are available so you can pick the one with the appropriate operating voltage range and output current capabilities for your project:

Pololu item #: 5036 | |
Brand: Pololu | supply outlook |
Status: Active and Preferred | |
The Motoron M2S18v18 Dual High-Power Motor Controller Shield for Arduino makes it easy to control two high-power DC motors from an Arduino or Arduino-compatible board through an I²C interface. The M2S18v18 supports motor supply voltages from 6.5 V to 30 V and can deliver continuous output currents up to 18 A per motor. This version ships with soldered stackable headers and terminal blocks.
Stacking disclaimer: The included terminal blocks are taller than the headers, so this version is intended to be used by itself or at the top of a stack. For stackable shields, we recommend getting the kit version and soldering wires to the board instead of the terminal blocks.
