SmartDrive40 is one of the latest smart series motor drivers designed to drive medium to high power brushed DC motor with current capacity up to 80A peak and 40A continuously. MOSFETs are switched at 16 KHz to ensure quiet operation and no annoying whining sound. Besides, it also equipped with a microcontroller unit to provide some smart features such as multiple input mode, current limiting and thermal protection.
SmartDrive40 can also be hooked up with another similar unit and operates in pair. This make driving a robot with differential drive a truly plug and play experience.
This SmartDrive40 is also suitable to use in Combat Robot because it is able to drive starter motor and operate in RC mode.
