Hi,


I’m looking for a controller with a 5 A driver.


For a project of mine, I need a 60-watt, 5-amp driver for a motor, and I also want to connect 2 sensors.


Ideally, I’d like to find an existing board that can support a 5 A driver and the sensors.
The only ones I’ve found so far can drive up to 2 amps (like the Romeo V2 board).


If anyone knows of an existing board I can use, it would be very appreciated.

 

hi ben,
Welcome to AAC.
I am assuming as it is 60W at 5A you have a 12Vdc project?

Any in this Amazon link? @ben jay1000

yes. 12 volt 5 Amps DC motor.

thank you,

I need a microcontroller that i can program with arduino to control the motor. And option for inputs to the microcontroller to send signals from sensors to contoroler and then display on the computer.

 

hi ben,
Could you post a basic circuit diagram, showing the modules that you want to use?

The driver can be your microcontroller with a MOSFET switch (or H-bridge if bidirectional) for the motor. If you are already using a microcontroller why not program it to do it all? What do expect the additional board to do?

I want ideally to have one microcontroller board that has on it a 5 amps driver so i wont have to add parts and make the project more simple
