Description

This 4 channels DC motor driver is designed for makers who want to build an omnidirectional-drive robot. It enables bidirectional control of four (4) DC brushed motor from 7V to 25V. 

The onboard test buttons and motor output LEDs allow functional test of the motor driver in a quick and convenient way without hooking up the host controller.

This motor driver can be controlled with PWM and DIR inputs. With input logic voltage range from 1.8V to 12V, it’s compatible with wide variety of host controller (e.g. Arduino, Raspberry Pi, PLC).

* Starting from 10th April 2015, FD04A is Rev2.0
