I know know from the documentation that the Serializer only supports 4 amps for each motor on the internal H-Bridge, my question is: will the serializer be damaged if I connect a motor that has a much higher stall torque than 4 amps.
For example one motor I am looking at will run fine with only 4 amps, however its stall current is easily over 10 amps, if such a motor were connected to the serializer could it damage it, or will it only provide up to 4 amps, and anything more will just not pass through (I am basically asking if there is overcurrent protection of some sort).
Thanks

| We do have 10A H-bridges though that will handle 10A. just note they need 12v to 24v to work. Ringo

Alright thanks,
The serializer can take a 12 volt input too though right?
