This shield makes it easy to control two high-power DC motors with your Arduino or Arduino-compatible board. Its twin discrete MOSFET H-bridges support a wide 6.5 V to 30 V operating range and are efficient enough to deliver a continuous 18 A without a heat sink. The drivers offer basic current sensing and current limiting functionality, and they accept ultrasonic PWM frequencies for quieter operation. The Arduino pin mappings can all be customized if the defaults are not convenient, and the motor driver control lines are broken out along the left side of the shield for general-purpose use without an Arduino.

Dimensions

Size: 2.56″ × 2.02″ × 0.38″1
Weight: 18 g1

General specifications

Motor channels: 2
Minimum operating voltage: 6.5 V
Maximum operating voltage: 30 V2
Continuous output current per channel: 18 A3
Current sense: 0.020 V/A
Maximum PWM frequency: 100 kHz
Minimum logic voltage: 1.8 V

Identifying markings

PCB dev codes: ash06d
Other PCB markings: 0J10698, blank white box

Notes:

1
Without included hardware.
2
Absolute maximum; higher voltages can permanently destroy the motor driver. Recommended maximum is approximately 24 V, which leaves a safety margin for ripple voltage on the supply line. Not recommended for use with 24V batteries.
3
Typical results at room temperature with both channels running at 90% duty cycle.
