Infineon Technologies DC-SHIELD_BTN9960LV DC Motor Control Eval Kit

Infineon Technologies DC-SHIELD_BTN9960LV DC Motor Control Eval Kit enables and supports the evaluation of the MOTIX™ BTN9960LV Single Half-Bridge IC. The board includes two BTN9960LV high current PN half-bridges with integrated driver IC. The motor control shield is designed to drive DC motors with an Arduino-compatible baseboard. The evaluation kit can be controlled using a microcontroller's logic I/O ports. An Arduino Uno R3 or an Infineon µIO Stick via the µIO port can be used as the controller. The Infineon Technologies DC-SHIELD_BTN9960LV is ideal for automotive applications, precisely 12V automotive motor control using a brushed DC motor.
