1. INTRODUCTION/OVERVIEW
MDD10A is the dual channel version of MD10C which is designed to drive 2 brushed DC
motors with high current up to 10A continuously. Just like MD10C, the MDD10A also
supports locked-antiphase and sign-magnitude PWM signal. It is also using full solid state
components which result in faster response time and eliminate the wear and tear of the
mechanical relay.
* MDD10A being shipping after Jan 2017 are Rev2.0 which have upgraded to support
maximum motor voltage up to 30V.
MDD10A has been designed with the capabilities and features of:
●Bi-directional control for 2 brushed DC motors.
●Support motor voltage ranges from 5V to 25V 30V (Rev2.0).
●Maximum current up to 10A continuous and 30A peak (10 second) for each channel.
●Solid state components provide faster response time and eliminate the wear and tear
of mechanical relay.
●Fully NMOS H-Bridge for better efficiency and no heat sink is required.
●Speed control PWM frequency up to 20KHz (Actual output frequency is same as
input frequency).
●Support both locked-antiphase and sign-magnitude PWM operation.
●Support TTL PWM from microcontroller, not PWM from RC receiver.
●Onboard push button to control the motor manually.
●Dimension: 84.5mm x 62mm
Note: Please use battery when driving inductive load such as DC brush motor. Due to the
protection circuit of most Power supply (switching), it will shut down when regenerative
current from motor is detected.

Note: Please use battery when driving inductive load such as DC brush motor. Due to the
protection circuit of most Power supply (switching), it will shut down when regenerative
current from motor is detected. Even if the case where switching power supply is needed, a
battery with the same rated voltage need to be parallel with the power supply to absorb the
regenerative current.

6. GETTING STARTED
6.1 Getting Started MDD10A with SK40C
MDD10A is compatible with 2 types of PWM operation, which are:
1. Sign-Magnitude PWM – For sign-magnitude PWM operation, 2 control signals are used to
control the speed and direction of the motor. PWM is feed to the PWM pin to control the
speed while DIR pin is used to control the direction of the motor.
2. Locked-Antiphase PWM – For locked-antiphase PWM operation, only 1 control signal is
needed to control the speed and direction of the motor. PWM pin is connected to logic high
while the DIR pin is being feed with the PWM signal. When the PWM signal has 50% duty
cycle, the motor stops running. If the PWM has less than 50% duty cycle, the motor will turn
CW (or CCW depending on the connection). If the PWM signal has more than 50% duty
cycle, motor will turn CCW (or CW depending on the connection).
6.2 Getting Started MDD10A with Arduino
Check the tutorial here for the interface of MDD10A with Arduino, example sketch can be
downloaded at the end of tutorial.
