Description
Motoron M2U550 Compact Dual Serial DC Motor Controller
Supports motor supply voltages from 1.8 V to 22 V
Delivers continuous output currents of up to 1.6 A per motor
Features reverse-voltage protection on the motor power supply
Compatible with Arduino or Python/MicroPython
The Motoron M2U550 Dual Serial DC Motor Controller is a compact and efficient solution for controlling two DC motors via a UART interface. This device allows for the connection of multiple Motoron controllers to the same serial bus, thereby facilitating the expansion of a system with additional motors. The M2U550 is designed to support motor supply voltages ranging from 1.8 V to 22 V and is capable of delivering continuous output currents of up to 1.6 A per motor. This particular model comes with header pins included, although they are not pre-soldered.
The Motoron M2T550 and M2U550 controllers are designed to facilitate the control of two bidirectional, brushed DC motors using an I²C or TTL serial (UART) interface. These compact controllers, measuring just 0.6 x 0.8 inches, support a wide range of motor supply voltages and can deliver continuous output currents of up to 1.6 A per motor. The unique feature of these controllers is that they can be configured to work on a single I²C or serial bus, thereby allowing for the independent control of multiple motors. Unlike many motor drivers, the Motoron controllers do not require any PWM outputs or timers on the microcontroller. Instead, they only require a single I²C or UART interface, regardless of the number of Motoron controllers connected.
The M2U550 model features a non-inverted TTL serial (UART) interface. This version comes with a 1x16 breakaway male header included, although it is not pre-soldered.
The Motoron controllers come with a host of features and specifications. They include two motor control channels for independent control of up to two bidirectional brushed DC motors per Motoron, a wide motor supply voltage range, and a maximum output current per motor of 1.6 A continuous. They also feature reverse-voltage protection on the motor power supply, a logic voltage range of 3.0 V to 4.9 V, and a control interface with optional cyclic redundancy checking (CRC). Other features include configurable motion parameters, a command timeout feature that stops motors if the Motoron stops receiving commands, configurable automatic error response, motor power supply (VIN) voltage measurement, two status LEDs, motor direction indicator LEDs, and an error output for easier detection of error conditions. The Motoron controllers are also compatible with Arduino or Python/MicroPython and come with a comprehensive user’s guide.
Please note that the Motoron controllers are not recommended for use with a nominal 5V logic voltage range. The Motoron controllers also come with a reverse-voltage protection feature on the motor power supply, which protects down to −20 V.
If you are not satisfied for whatever reason with a Product you bought on the Site, it is possible to return it for refund within 30 days from the date you received it unless otherwise indicated in the Product listing. You must first advise the Vendor associated with your order in your account to obtain a return authorization (‘’RA’’) number before returning a Product. (‘’RA’’) numbers are valid for 30 days, within which time the returned Products should be received by the Vendor. No returns will be accepted without having previously obtained an (‘’RA’’) number. The Product must then be returned in its original packaging (in perfect condition for resale) with its receipt and your (‘’RA’’) number. Reimbursement will be denied for any Products which do not conform to the above mentioned conditions.
Build-it-yourself Robot Parts are not refundable once assembled. Robots & Kits requiring assembly or soldering are also not refundable once assembled, soldered or modified in any way. All sales of robotic software and apps are final and cannot be refunded or exchanged. Returns are not accepted on special orders and clearance items except when they are found defective, in which case the Product may be repaired or replaced at the Vendor’s discretion. 20% Restocking fees may apply if you are returning a large quantity of the same Product that was ordered specifically for you from the manufacturer.
Please note that all items will be reimbursed within 7 to 14 days of receiving the Product (shipping fees excluded). You must also cover the cost of returning the Product. Shipping fees will only be refunded if the return is a result of a shipping error on our part. Cleaning fees of USD 100 may also be charged if a domestic robot is returned and has not been properly cleaned.
