The Motoron M2H18v20 Dual High-Power Motor Controller for Raspberry Pi (No Connectors/Standoffs) is a sophisticated device designed to manage DC motors via a Raspberry Pi (Model B+ or newer) through an I²C interface. It is capable of supporting motor supply voltages ranging from 6.5 to 30 V and can consistently deliver output currents up to 20 A for each motor. This particular model is solely the motor controller, devoid of any connectors or mounting hardware.
The M2H18v20 controller belongs to the Motoron M2H family of dual high-power motor controller add-on boards. These controllers are engineered to stack atop a Raspberry Pi, akin to a HAT (Hardware Attached on Top), and allow for multiple controllers to be stacked together, enabling independent control of numerous motors. The Raspberry Pi communicates with the Motoron using I²C, requiring only two GPIO pins, irrespective of the number of Motorons connected.
The M2H18v20 controller is capable of supporting motor supply voltages from 6.5 to 30 V and can consistently deliver output currents up to 20 A for each motor. It is distinguishable from other M2H controllers by its larger discrete MOSFETs and the number 150 displayed on the tall silver electrolytic capacitors.
It is equipped with two motor control channels for independent control of up to two bidirectional brushed DC motors, reverse-voltage protection on motor power supply, a logic voltage range of 3.0 to 5 V, and a control interface: I²C clock speed: up to 400 kHz. It also possesses configurable motion parameters, current sensing, configurable hardware current limiting, and motor power supply (VIN) voltage measurement.
Please note that the absolute maximum voltage is not intended for use with 24 V batteries.
