Sabertooth 2x12 Dual Motor Driver 12A Brushed DC Motor Controller
VAT inclusive; Computed calculations added locally.
Overview
The Sabertooth 2x12 Dual Motor Driver is a versatile motor controller for robotics projects that require reliable control of two brushed DC motors. With two independent channels capable of handling up to 12A continuous current per channel, it is suitable for mobile robots, combat robotics, autonomous platforms, and other medium-power robotic systems. Multiple control methods including analog voltage, radio control (RC), simplified serial, and packetized serial make the controller flexible enough for use with Arduino and other embedded control systems. Screw terminals provide convenient motor and power connections, while onboard configuration switches simplify setup. Whether you are developing a prototype or building a more advanced mobile robot, the Sabertooth 2x12 provides a practical interface between your controller and high-current DC motors.

Product Technical Information
Technical Details
The Sabertooth 2x12 Dual Motor Driver is a two-channel brushed DC motor controller designed for medium-power robotic platforms. It allows two DC motors to be controlled independently, including forward and reverse operation, making it suitable for differential-drive and other mobile robot configurations.
Each channel supports up to 12A continuous current, providing a practical solution for robotics applications that require more motor power than typical low-current motor driver modules can deliver.
One of its key advantages is the range of available control methods. The Sabertooth 2x12 can accept analog voltage, RC, simplified serial, and packetized serial control, allowing it to work with different types of robot controllers and embedded systems. This makes it suitable for projects based around Arduino and other microcontroller platforms.
The screw-terminal connections simplify wiring during prototyping and installation, while the onboard configuration switches allow the controller to be configured for the desired operating mode.
Applications
- Mobile and differential-drive robots
- Autonomous robotics platforms
- Combat robot projects
- Medium-power DC motor applications
- Arduino-based robotic vehicles
- Remote-controlled robots
- Educational and research robotics
Note: Actual motor current and robot weight capability depend on motor characteristics, battery supply, duty cycle, cooling, gearing, and operating conditions. Use an appropriately rated power supply and wiring.
