The motor driver can control up to two DC motors at a constant current of 600mAh (1.2A peak). Two input signals (IN1 and IN2) can be used to control the motor in one of four function modes - CW, CCW, short-brake, and stop. The two motor outputs (A and B) can be separately controlled, the speed of each motor is controlled via a PWM input signal with a frequency up to 5KHz. The motor and the external power supply interfaces use the XH2.54-2P socket instead of the traditional green screw terminal, easy to use, and you can avoid screwing.
Note: However, when using the board at currents up to 0.6A, it may be necessary to improve thermal performance with a heat-sink.
