Cytron DC MOOTTORIOHJAIN 13A 6V-30V

Brushed motor is the most widely used motor because of the ease of operation. Just supply the two terminals DC power supply, the motor will start rotating! Yet, you need a good motor driver to control the speed and direction from microcontroller. You are at the right page, MD13S is one of the easiest to use brushed motor driver.

MD13S has great improvement in current protection which MD10C does not have. With new circuit and design, MD13S is able to limit and support current up to 30A max(10 seconds). And the continuous current is at 13A without heatsink (at room temperature of 25°C).

Not to forget it is GROVE compatible, so get yourself a Grove shield. Oh, did I mention? MD13S is smaller than MD10C :)

Which brush motor is good to be driven by MD13S? As long as the motor:

• Is DC Brush motor (Two Terminals)
• Operating voltage from 6V to 30V
• Rated Current ≤ 13A
• Peak Current ≤ 30A

Features
