Hi guys, Im new with the arduino, I have a problem hope you can help me, I want to control 4 dc motors, (the details of it is in the attached file) the problem is that I dont know what motor driver I will use, can you recommend some motor drivers out there? Thank you !
The stall current is given as 3.2A in that attachment. So pick a driver with at least that much current capability.
It looks like 6V so there should be no trouble finding a controller and power supply. Don't be afraid to use a higher voltage. 12V or 13.8V is much easier to find. Just don't use high PWM power settings over 50% for too long at that voltage.
I just found this motor driver (features and specs below) or in this link https://m.aliexpress.com/s/item/32800934326.html?trace=wwwdetail2mobilesitedetail&productId=32800934326&productSubject=1pc-DC5-12V-0A-30A-Dual-channel-H-bridge-Motor-Driver-Board-Module my plan is that I will make the 2 motors parallel in A and the other 2 in B, is it possible with this motor driver?

Features:
Upgraded product comes with heat sink to improve the reliability and current detection circuit to realize a perfect PID closed-loop design.
This board has a high speed switch. General coreless motors need 60kHz PWM frequency and this board is designed with a 200kHz switch.
Suitable for all kinds of toy car motors, semi-conductor refrigeration control, DC motors, electromagnetic deflection coil control.
This board can withstand high current overload and has brake function which can stop motor quickly.
Single power source input voltage range of this board is 3 to 15V, if you use a power source less than 12V, this board is very useful. It can still work even the voltage of a 12V battery is as low as 3V.
MOSFET is able to endure current shock with 0.003ohm resistance, which can quickly open the MOSFET channel and improve motor acceleration curvature, and also can quickly brake motor. It can make the car start up quickly and brake quickly.
Hi,
What is the application?
Those motors have encoders mounted on them, do you aim to use them.
Do you want to change direction and speed, or just turn them on in one direction only?
Can you post a full model number of the motor please?
A screen shot from a smarty phone is not really telling everything about the motor/encoder.
Thanks.. Tom..

Hello Tom, thank you for reading my post, however, I cannot find the orginal name or model of this dc motor , but here is the link of the shop were I bought it.

I want to control this motors in forward and backward as well as to control its speed, is it possible with this motor driver?

I tried to open that link to lazada and after 5 minutes the little circle thingy is still whizzing round.
From the pic, looks like a 25 mm diameter gearmotor but (of course) no mention of required current.
Please try this one, I just found similar product on ebay
The model name of the motor is 663822 dc motor.

Tom...
Im totally new about arduino, I just learned this 6 months ago by my friends and I was really interested
When they introduced it into me. So, I just have the basic knowledge about the programming, electronics and hardware about this one.
//basic knowledge is the things I learn in youtube videos, arduino IDE sample programs and a couple of research
We plan to join a sumobot contest, but it seems like we have trouble in this dc motor because the motor driver l298n heats up immediately, huhu
So here I am, asking for help from the masters of this field
