Drv8835 Dual Motor Driver Carrier - Pololu

DRV8835 is a tiny dual H-bridge motor driver IC that can be used for bidirectional control of two brushed DC motors at 0 V to 11 V. It can supply up to about 1.2 A per channel continuously and can tolerate peak currents up to 1.5 A per channel for a few seconds, making it an ideal driver for small motors that run on relatively low voltages. The DRV8835 is a great IC, but its small, leadless package makes it difficult for the typical student or hobbyist to use. our breakout board gives this driver the form factor of a 14-pin DIP package, which makes it easy to use with standard solderless breadboards and 0.1″ perfboards.

Features of Drv8835 Dual Motor Driver Carrier:
 

• Dual-H-bridge motor driver: can drive two DC motors or one bipolar stepper motor
• Motor supply voltage: 0 V to 11 V
• Logic supply voltage: 2 V to 7 V
• Output current: 1.2 A continuous (1.5 A peak) per motor
• Motor outputs can be paralleled to deliver 2.4 A continuous (3 A peak) to a single motor
• Two possible interface modes: IN/IN (outputs mostly mirror inputs) or PHASE/ENABLE (one pin for direction and another for speed)
• Inputs are 3V- and 5V-compatible
• Under-voltage lockout on the logic supply and protection against over-current and over-temperature
• Reverse-voltage protection on the motor supply
• Compact size (0.7″×0.4″) with the form factor of a 14-pin DIP package
