TB6612FNG Dual Motor Driver Module

TB6612FNG Dual Motor Driver Module

The TB6612FNG Dual Motor Driver Module is a compact and efficient motor controller capable of driving two DC motors or one bipolar stepper motor simultaneously. Based on the reliable TB6612FNG motor driver IC, it delivers up to 1.2A continuous current per channel and supports peak currents of up to 3.2A, making it an excellent choice for robotics, automation, and Arduino-based projects.

The module supports multiple motor control modes, including clockwise rotation, counterclockwise rotation, braking, and stop functions. Individual PWM inputs allow independent speed control of each motor with frequencies up to 100kHz, enabling smooth and precise motor operation.

Designed for easy integration, the board includes onboard filtering capacitors, thermal shutdown protection, and low-voltage detection to ensure reliable and safe operation.
