Cytron 30Amp 5V-30V DC Motor Driver
Cytron 30Amp 5V-30V DC Motor Driver The Cytron 30Amp DC Motor Driver (MD30C) is a high-performance upgrade to the MD30B, engineered for powering medium to high power brushed DC motors. This Cytron DC motor driver 30A handles a continuous current of 30A and can peak up to 80A, making it ideal for demanding applications. Operating across a voltage range of 5V to 30V, it qualifies as a versatile 30A motor driver 5V to 30V solution. The fully NMOS-based architecture ensures higher efficiency and faster switching speeds without requiring additional cooling systems like fans or heatsinks. As a Cytron single channel motor driver, it offers built-in features such as reverse polarity protection and an onboard PWM generator, enabling operation even without a microcontroller. Users can control motor direction and speed via onboard or external switches and potentiometers, making it a flexible and user-friendly choice for your next robotics or automation project. Features: Reverse polarity protection. Logic level inputs are 3.3V and 5V. For increased efficiency, a fully NMOS H-Bridge is used, with no heat sink required. Speed control PWM frequency up to 20KHz. Standalone operation is enabled by an onboard PWM generator with switches and a potentiometer. External PWM operation now supports both locked-antiphase and sign-magnitude modes. For more information, see the User Manual in Attachments and Links.
