1.0INTRODUCTION
SHIELDMD10 is an Arduino shield for controlling high current brushed DC motor up to 10A
continuously. It is compatible with Arduino UNO, Arduino Duemilanove, Arduino Mega, Arduino
Leonardo and possibly other pin compatible main boards. SHIELDMD10 uses full solid state
components which results in faster response time and eliminates the wear and tear of the mechanical
relay. SHIELDMD10 shield has stackable side headers which allows for more Arduino shields to
bestackedontopofit.
