Description

  • Sabertooth Dual 25A 6V-30V Regenerative Motor Driver
  • Synchronous regenerative drive
  • Ultra-sonic switching frequency
  • Thermal and overcurrent protection
  • Lithium protection mode
  • Input modes: Analog, R/C, simplified serial, packetized serial

The Sabertooth Dual 25A 6V-30V Regenerative Motor Driver V2 is one of the most versatile, efficient and easy-to-use dual motor drivers on the market. It is suitable for high-powered robots - up to 100 lbs in combat or 300 lbs for general-purpose robotics.

Out of the box, the Sabertooth can supply two DC brushed motors with up to 25A each. Peak currents of 50A per channel are achievable for a few seconds.

Overcurrent and thermal protection means you'll never have to worry about killing the driver with accidental stalls or by hooking up too big a motor.

Sabertooth allows you to control two motors with: analog voltage, radio control, serial and packetized serial. You can build many different robots of increasing complexity for years to come with a Sabertooth. Sabertooth has independent and speed+direction operating modes, making it the ideal driver for differential drive (tank style) robots and more.

The operating mode is set with the onboard DIP switches so there are no jumpers to lose. Sabertooth features screw terminal connectors - making it possible for you to build a robot without even soldering.

Sabertooth is the first synchronous regenerative motor driver in its class. The regenerative topology means that your batteries get recharged whenever you command your robot to slow down or reverse. Sabertooth also allows you to make very fast stops and reverses - giving your robot a quick and nimble edge.

Sabertooth has a built-in 5V 1A Switch-mode BEC that can provide power to a microcontroller or R/C receiver, as well as 3-4 standard analog servos. The lithium cutoff mode allows Sabertooth to operate safely with lithium ion and lithium polymer battery packs - the highest energy density batteries available.

Sabertooth's transistors are switched at ultrasonic speeds (32kHz) for silent operation. It uses 1.3 milliohm MOSFETs in its bridge.

NOT A BAD PRODUCT. HOWEVER, NOT VERY USEFUL EITHER.

I TRIED TO USE IT ON A R/C CONTROLLER NO LUCK. ALSO TRIED WITH AN ARDUINO UNO, NO LUCK. SO, DID NOT SERVE MUCH USE. Comment RobotShop: Thank you for your review. A remote controller can be used to control the Sabertooth motor driver. You can contact the Dimensione Engineering support team directly at [****]

Versatile and robust

This is an essential piece of equipment for any type of motion control using brushed DC motors. It can be connected to microcontrollers as well as RC controllers and can handle a large variety of motor sizes. I was initially going to design my own motor controller, but after looking at the features of this controller I realized it’s not worth the cost, time or effort. No need to reinvent the wheel! It’s easy to set up and exceeded my expectations.
