MX1508 Dual H-Bridge PWM Motor Driver

MX1508 Dual H-Bridge PWM Motor Driver is a compact and efficient dual-channel motor driver module designed for driving two DC motors or one stepper motor. It supports bidirectional control using pulse-width modulation (PWM) signals and is ideal for low to medium power robotics, automation, and embedded projects.

Key Features:

• Dual H-Bridge: Capable of driving 2 DC motors independently or 1 stepper motor.
• PWM Speed Control: Supports speed and direction control through PWM input.
• Wide Voltage Range: Operates between 2V and 10V DC.
• High Efficiency: Integrated low-loss MOSFET transistors for better thermal performance.
• Compact Form Factor: Small module size for tight PCB or embedded integrations.

Technical Specifications:

• Operating Voltage: 2V to 10V DC
• Motor Drive Voltage: Same as supply voltage (shared)
• Continuous Current: 1.5A per channel (typical)
• Peak Current: 2A per channel
• Control Input: TTL compatible (3.3V or 5V logic)
• Built-in Protection: Thermal shutdown and short-circuit protection

Mechanical Specifications:

• Module Dimensions: Approx. 28mm × 21mm × 5mm
• Pin Header: 2.54mm standard pitch for easy breadboard compatibility
• Weight: Approx. 3g
