FEATURE DESCRIPTION 

The REV Robotics SPARK Motor Controller includes a range of features designed specifically for use on 

FIRST® 

Robotics Competition robots. Each feature is described in detail throughout the following sections. 

2.1

 

POWER AND MOTOR CONNECTIONS 

The SPARK is designed to drive 12V brushed DC motors at currents up to 60A continuously. Power and motor 
connections are made through the two sets of screw terminals built into the SPARK. Figure 2-1 shows these 
connections in detail.

2.1.1

 

SCREW TERMINALS 

The SPARK has four M3 sized screw terminals; two each for power and motor connections. Each screw has a clamping 
washer that improves the contact area and clamping force compared to plain screw heads. Table 2-1 lists the 
recommended crimp-terminal sizes and styles.
