Monster Moto Shield SINGLE CHIP VNH2SP30 Driver Motor

Monster Moto Shield SINGLE CHIP VNH2SP30 Driver Motor.

The Monster Motor Controller Shield For Arduino (14A, 5.5-16V) is essentially a ramped up version of Sparkfun’s Ardumoto motor driver shield. For this monster shield maufacturer has replaced the L298 H-bridge with a pair of VNH2SP30 full-bridge motor drivers. Manufacturer has also beefed up the support circuitry so this board is capable of driving a pair of high-current motors.

Note: When using this board in extreme high-demand applications it may be necessary to improve thermal performance with a heat-sink or fan and to solder the wires directly to the board instead of using a screw terminal. However, when using the board at currents up to 6A the chips will barely become noticeably warm.
