Product description

The Control Techniques MD20A is a robust DC motor driver capable of handling up to 20A continuously. Designed with an NMOS H-Bridge, it supports bidirectional control for brushed DC motors with an input voltage range of 6V to 30V. Its onboard test buttons and LEDs facilitate quick functional testing without a host controller.

This motor driver is ideal for a wide array of applications requiring precise DC motor control, such as robotics, automation systems, electric vehicles, and hobbyist projects. It features overcurrent and temperature protection to safeguard the MOSFETs and prevent damage during stalls or high-load conditions.

Stanlo Automation, a veteran-owned surplus parts distributor, offers the Control Techniques MD20A. Source your reliable motor control solutions from us to ensure quality and value for your industrial needs.
