The DRI0044 micro dual DC motor driver evaluation board is based on the TB6612FNG motor driver IC. It inherits the DFRobot L298N motor control logic, which only need four pins to drive 2 motors. Compared with the IC Breakout option of the TB6612FNG driver IC, it saves two precious GPIO resources, especially in Arduino UNO board where GPIO constraints can be a limiting factor.
TB6612FNG is a dual-channel full-bridge drive chip. The maximum continuous drive current of single channel can reach 1.2A, peak value 2A/3.2A (continuous pulse / single pulse), which can drive some micro DC motors. The control logic is similar to L298N, and the code can be directly compatible with the DFROBOT L298N motor driver. Standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch header pin can be inserted directly into the breadboard for easy prototyping. It is a good choice for DIY project or product developments.
