Wonder how to control the speed and direction of DC motor?

Control your DC Motor instantly in 3 steps! No extra microcontroller/controller nor programming/coding is required!

1. Connect the Potentiometer and Switch to the MD10-POT board
2. Connect your DC Motor to the MD10-POT board.
3. Connect the Battery to the MD10-POT board
4. You are ready to go!

DC brushed motor is widely used in many applications due to the ease of use. You can simply connect the motor directly to the battery and it will start rotating. However, if you wish to control the speed and direction of the DC motor, then it will be more complicated. You can refer to tutorial: 5 easiest ways to control a DC motor to understand the basics of controlling DC motor.

MD10-POT is a motor driver or speed controller that enables you to control the start/stop, direction and speed of motor without any hassle. It is ideal for beginners to start this motion control project since there is no controller/microcontroller needed, of course no programming/coding is necessary too. You just control the DC motor directly through the Potentiometer (Speed) and Switch (Activation & Direction). Furthermore, there are two on board push buttons to test the DC motor.
