EVAL-VNH5019-P2: Dual VNH5019 Motor Driver Shield for Arduino

Summary

The EVAL-VNH5019-P2 motor driver shield makes it easy to control two bidirectional, high-power, brushed DC motors with an Arduino-Compatible, SPC56P-Discovery and STM32 Nucleo boards.

The board features a pair of robust VNH5019A motor drivers, which operate from 5.5 to 24 V and can deliver a continuous 12 A (30 A peak) per channel, and incorporate most of the components of the typical application, like pull-up's and protection resistors and FETs for reverse battery protection.

This versatile motor driver is intended for a wide range of users, from beginners who just want a plug-and-play motor control solution for their Arduinos and Nucleo to experts who want to directly interface with ST's motor driver ICs.

The Arduino pin mappings can all be customized if the defaults are not convenient and the VNH5019A control lines are broken out along the left side of the board for general-purpose use without an Arduino
