Monster Moto Shield VNH2SP30

There are times when we grow out of traditional solutions so that we can improve as a maker. If the usual L298 H-bridge module is not sufficient anymore with your device's needs, this item is an excellent alternative. This Monster Moto Shield VNH2SP30 is a  motor controller based on a pair of VNH2SP30 full-bridge motor drivers. It is beefed up so that it can drive a pair of high-current motors.  The VIN and motor out are pitched for our 5mm screw terminals (not included), making it easy to connect larger gauge wires for high power applications. It is highly advised to improve thermal performance as operating current increases. You can add a heatsink or a fan to support the module as the chips get hot when operating in high current.
