Sabertooth Dual 32A Motor Driver

The Sabertooth Dual 32A Motor Driver is a high-performance dual channel motor driver designed to deliver up to 32 amps of power to two motors, with impressive peak currents of up to 64 amps per motor. Its versatility extends to its control options, which include radio control, analog, TTL serial, or USB inputs.

Employing regenerative drive and braking technology, the Sabertooth ensures efficient operation while enhancing energy conservation. With a range of operating modes available, including tank style mixing and automatic calibration, most projects can be set up and running right out of the box.

Beyond the standard operating modes, the Sabertooth 2×32 boasts additional signal inputs and power outputs, along with enhanced configuration capabilities. Users can define custom operating modes to tailor the driver’s behavior to specific needs, enabling functionalities like seamless switching between radio control and computer-driven inputs, emergency stops, or front panel control overrides.

The auxiliary power outputs offer flexibility by allowing the Sabertooth 2×32 to function from a power supply without the need for a parallel battery, or by enabling automatic control of electromagnetic brakes. When paired with Dimension Engineering’s Kangaroo x2 motion control module, this motor driver can facilitate closed-loop position or speed control, utilizing encoder or analog feedback.

Real-time monitoring of the driver’s status is facilitated through the USB port, available in any operating mode, streamlining the debugging process and expediting project development. Overall, the Sabertooth 2×32 surpasses its predecessors in terms of flexibility, robustness, and power, all while maintaining user-friendliness.
