1.INTRODUCTION
SmartDriveDuo60 is one of the latest smart series motor drivers designed to drive medium
power brushed DC motor with current capacity up to 100A peak (few seconds) and 60A
continuously, each channel. This driver is designed specially for controlling differential drive
mobile robot using RC controller. Nevertheless, MDDS60 also can be controlled using
analog joystick or microcontroller (PWM, Serial). MOSFETs are switched at 16 KHz to
ensure quiet operation and no annoying whining sound. Besides, it also equipped with a
microcontroller unit to provide smart features such as multiple input mode and thermal
protection.
SmartDriveDuo60’s feature makes driving a robot with differential drive a truly plug and
playexperience.
