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.

Identifying markings

PCB dev codes: mc2s31a
Other PCB markings: 0J13657

Notes:

1
Absolute maximum; higher voltages can permanently destroy the motor drivers. 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.
2
Typical results at room temperature with both channels running at 90% duty cycle.
