Pololu High-Power Motor Driver – 30A
The Pololu High-Power Motor Driver is a robust discrete MOSFET H-bridge designed for controlling large brushed DC motors in demanding robotics, automation, and motion control applications. Built using high-efficiency N-channel MOSFETs, the driver supports motor supply voltages from 6.5V to 40V and can deliver up to 30A of continuous current, making it suitable for high-power motor systems that require reliable bidirectional control.

This versatile driver features a simple control interface requiring as few as two I/O pins, while still supporting both sign-magnitude and locked-antiphase control modes. An onboard current sensor provides direct motor current measurement and allows adjustable active current limiting for improved protection and system tuning. Additional safety features include reverse-voltage protection, undervoltage shutdown, and short-circuit protection, helping safeguard the driver and connected hardware in high-load applications.
