Bypass caps, pull-ups, strapping resistors, custom silkscreen & more
Design a Custom BoardDual H-bridge motor driver IC capable of driving two brushed DC motors or one stepper motor with up to 1.5A per channel. Features integrated FETs, PWM speed control, and protection circuits including thermal shutdown and current limiting. Suitable for robotics, toys, and portable consumer applications requiring compact motor control.
Hand-soldering 0.5mm pitch pads is extremely difficult without specialized equipment, and the exposed leads cannot access a breadboard. A breakout board with standard 0.1" headers lets you prototype high-voltage DC-DC converters like the MAX15062 without requiring reflow soldering or custom PCBs, making rapid iteration practical for industrial and sensor applications.
