Power Your Most Demanding Motor Projects
The Double BTS7960 43A High Power Motor Driver Module delivers the raw current your project needs — without the complexity. Built around two BTS7960 half-bridge ICs in a full H-bridge configuration, this module lets you drive a single brushed DC motor forward and reverse with precise PWM speed control at currents that leave lesser drivers behind.
Whether you're building a competition robot, a heavy-duty smart car platform, an automated gate system, or an industrial conveyor prototype, this module handles it with 43A peak current and a 6V to 27V motor supply range — all controlled from a simple 8-pin logic header that connects directly to your Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, or any 3.3V/5V microcontroller.
Why Choose This Motor Driver?
🔋 Serious Power: 43A peak drive current handles large brushed DC motors that smaller L298N or TB6612FNG drivers simply can't.
⚡ Simple Control: Just two PWM pins and two enable pins. If you can blink an LED, you can drive a motor.
🛡️ Built-In Protection: Overtemperature, overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, and short circuit protection are all integrated into the BTS7960 ICs. Your driver protects itself so you can focus on your project.
📊 Current Sensing: Dedicated R_IS and L_IS analog output pins let you monitor real-time motor current for stall detection, load monitoring, or closed-loop control.
🔧 Plug-and-Play Connectivity: Screw terminals for motor power connections and a standard pin header for logic signals. No soldering required for basic hookup.
❄️ Thermal Performance: Isolated aluminum heat sinks keep the driver cool under load, with support for sustained operation at moderate currents.
