The Motoron M3H256 Triple Motor Controller makes it easy to control DC motors from a Raspberry Pi (Model B+ or newer) through an I²C interface. Each module can independently control up to three motors, and multiple Motoron boards can be stacked on top of the same Raspberry Pi for projects that need to control even more motors. The M3H256 operates from 4.5 V to 48 V and can deliver continuous output currents up to 2 A per motor. This version ships without any header pins, terminal blocks, or mounting hardware included.

Features and specifications

Three motor control channels allow for independent control of up to three bidirectional brushed DC motors per Motoron
Wide operating voltage range: 4.5 V to 48 V
Maximum output current per motor: 2.0 A continuous, 6.4 A peak for <1 second
Reverse-voltage protection on motor power supply (down to -40 V)
Logic voltage range: 2.8 V to 5.5 V
Control interface: I²C
I²C clock speed: up to 400 kHz
Optional cyclic redundancy checking (CRC)
Configurable motion parameters:
- Max acceleration/deceleration forward/reverse
- Starting speed forward/reverse
- Direction change delay forward/reverse
PWM frequency: eight options available from 1 kHz to 80 kHz
Command timeout feature stops motors if the Raspberry Pi stops communicating
Configurable automatic error response
Motor power supply (VIN) voltage measurement
Optional pins make it easy to power the Raspberry Pi from reverse-protected motor power through an external regulator (not included)
Two status LEDs
Motor direction indicator LEDs
Motoron Python library simplifies getting started using the Motoron with a Raspberry Pi
