    Will Tronics H-Bridge work with the Arduino?

    Can anyone explain how this works? (IE I send a HIGH value to a pin of hte H-Bridge to turn motor 1 forward..??.?)

    I'm only thinking of building the H-Bridge as im trying to make the cheapest build possible.

    You could use the Dual VNH2SP30 Motor Driver Carrier also, just as an option.
    they are pritty cheep and should have all the pins you need to hook it up.

    I know $70 isnt too expensive (when you times it by 3 as i want 3DOF now.. its $210).

    But im really trying to budget and keep the prices down as much as possible. I dont mind making my own devices, I already have all the electronics for Tronics H-Bridge because until i did more research i was originally goign to create it..

    Being a new dad I need to save all the money i can for the build :)

    The input labels explain it. Apply PWM to set speed and set high one of the direction pins...
