Minimum current rating for motor driver

[vidam]

if a motor driver has a minimum current limit of 10 Amps does that mean it won't drive a motor with < 10 Amps?

minimum current limit? never heard of it...

Some devices, like switch mode power supplies, require a minimum load across the output.  If the minimum load is not met the internal components tend to fry.  Try running a small current consuming device on an old computer power supply and it will eventually die.

I've never seen a driver board for >10A motors, but if one was designed to operate at a minimum of 10A I would suspect the designers added that requirement for a reason.  I'm sure it would work....for a little while.

this is the same as maximum current  you can calculate it easily
