M-Drive, CAN-Bus controlled 4 Motor H-bridge

The M-Drive is a CAN-Bus enabled four motor H-Bridge. It offers complete control over four motors, clockwise, counter clockwise, and brake modes. Simple Can messages can be used to control motor direction and speed, as well as check its status, and change configuration parameters. Optional watchdog and pinging functions can be configured to prevent runaway conditions in case the controlling node becomes unresponsive.

The M-Drive is perfectly suited for controlling mid-sized DC motors in robotics applications.

• Up to 40v supply
