Hi,
We have a RPI3 running a Python 3 program to control two 12volt 30amp motors that we want to control with PWM for speed. I am looking for suggestions on appropriate motor controllers that can handle these high amp loads that will also work for dual motors running at the same time?
Controllers with Python code examples/library already developed would be best. It does not need to stack on the RPI either. We are running this on Balena.io headless.
Thanks,
Greg
Hi @gerg and welcome to our forum!
We have a Motor Driver HAT for Raspberry Pi but its amperage is too low for your project: https://www.robotshop.com/en/cytron-2x10a-motor-driver-hat-for-rasberry-pi.html
Based on your amperage and voltage requirements, you can have a look at these:
They differ in price and implemented protocols. It is up to you to choose how your raspberry Pi will communicate with driver (for example, via UART).
