This tiny breakout board for TI’s DRV8838 Motor driver can deliver a continuous 1.7 A (1.8 A peak) to a single brushed DC Motor.
With an operating voltage range from 0 V to 11 V and built-in protection against reverse-voltage, under-voltage, over-current, and over-temperature, this driver is a great solution for powering a small, low-voltage Motor.
The carrier board has the form factor of a 10-pin DIP package, which makes it easy to use with standard solderless breadboards and 0.1" perfboards.
H-bridge Motor driver: can drive one DC Motor
Motor supply voltage: 0 V to 11 V
Logic supply voltage: 1.8 V to 7 V
Output Current: up to 1.7 A continuous (1.8 A peak); operation at low Motor and logic supply voltages reduces the maximum continuous output Current
PHASE/ENABLE interface (one pin controls direction and another controls 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 (0.5"×0.4") with the form factor of a 10-pin DIP package
