Pololu Dual G2 High-Power Motor Driver 24v14 for Raspberry Pi (Assembled)
We have ✅ 1 available of the PL-3753 in our Sydney warehouse. An extra 10 units will be available shortly.
The board matches the Raspberry Pi HAT (Hardware Attached on Top) mechanical specification, although it does not conform to the full HAT specifications due to the lack of an ID EEPROM. (A footprint for adding your own EEPROM is available for applications where one would be useful; pull-ups on SDA, SCL, and WP are provided.) It is not practical to use this expansion board with the original Raspberry Pi Model A or Model B due to differences in their pinout and form factor.
Features common to all versions
- PWM operation up to 100 kHz
- Motor indicator LEDs show what the outputs are doing even when no motor is connected
- Blue power LED is lit while the board is powered
- Integrated 5 V, 2.5 A switching step-down voltage regulator powers the Raspberry Pi base for single-supply operation
- Python library makes it easy to get started using this board as a motor driver expansion board
- GPIO pin mappings can be customized if the default mappings are not convenient
- Current sensing and limiting pins are exposed for advanced use
- Reverse-voltage protection
- Undervoltage shutdown
- Short circuit protection
- Operating voltage: 6.5 V to 36 V (absolute maximum; not intended for use with 36 V batteries)
- Maximum can be increased to 40 V if regulator is disconnected (see below)
- Output current: 14 A continuous
- Active current limiting (chopping) with approximate default threshold of 40 A (can be adjusted lower)
This version of the 24v14 motor driver is fully assembled, with a 2×20-pin 0.1″ female header (for the Raspberry Pi interface) and a six-pin strip of 5 mm terminal blocks (for board power and motor outputs) soldered in. It can be distinguished from the other versions by its red PCB and the number 100 on top of the six tall silver electrolytic capacitors at the corner of the board. (See item #3752 for a kit version with connectors included but not soldered in.)
