Stall Cuurent of 25D motor with encoder

Hi

I will like to know the following with for 25D gearmotor used in the kit - motor bracket wheel and encode

The normal no load current at 12 V
The stall current at 12 V
Will Pololu TB6612 driver board be sufficient to drive it?

Thank you.

Hi @sgupta_27 and welcome to our forum.

Current value will depend on the type of the motor (different RPMs) you choose.

Here is a datasheet with values: https://cdn.robotshop.com/rbm/a00a7635-653b-4220-aac9-b0c23c5c5e2c/9/937bc8fd-df7e-4549-84e7-739dc23aaa9d/c1a0ee55_25d-encoder-gear-motor-kits.pdf

On the first look, it looks like TB6612 would work fine.

If some motor values are missing from datasheet, you can contact E-S motor support via email: CONTACT US
