Cytron Technical Forum

Hi,

I want to control the speed of this motor with a shield Arduino : https://www.cytron.io/p-ig32e-05k
On the product page this shield is advised : https://www.cytron.io/p-shield-2amotor
However, on the characteristics of the motor, it is said that 5A can be necessary so isn't this shield more adapted : https://www.cytron.io/p-shield-md10 ?

Thanks for your answers

Hi Sucredo,

It's no load current is ≤150mA and rated current is ≤900mA, where SHIELD-2AMOTOR is enough. If your application involving higher load, then I suggest to use SHIELD-MD10.

Thanks.
