Micro Driver for 2 DC Motors

Description

Based on the DRV8833 chip, equivalent to the Toshiba TB6612FNG driver, this compact driver allows you to control 2 DC motors with a constant current of 1.2 A (2 A peak per motor). The two input signals (IN1 and IN2) allow you to control the motor in one of four operating modes: forward, reverse, stop, and brake. The two motor outputs (A and B) can be controlled separately; the speed of each motor is controlled via a PWM input signal with a maximum frequency of up to 100 kHz. The STBY pin allows you to put the motor in standby to limit power consumption. The logic supply voltage (VCC) can be between 2.7 and 5.5 VDC, while the motor supply (VM) is limited to a maximum voltage of 12 VDC.
