What is CH340? CH340 is a TTL (serial) to USB converter and vice versa. This chip has been used in some boards such as Arduino Uno CH340G, ESP8266, etc. The boards using the CH340 chip, don’t need a programmer in order to access the processor or to program them.But there is a downside. An extra driver must be installed before starting to work with boards having this IC. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install CH340 driver.You can apply this guide to all Windows versions, including Windows 11,...

MX1508 Motor Driver Module Features The MX1508 driver is one of the cheapest drivers for running DC motors with a maximum current of 2 amps. Small dimensions and simple setup are the positive features of this module. The MX1508 is a dual full-bridge motor driver that allows two DC motors to be connected simultaneously. Note The MX1508 motor controller follows the H-bridge configuration, which is handy to drive a stepper motors.This driver has a temperature protection circuit that disables the d...

L298N Motor Driver Module Features The L298N module is used to drive DC motors with a maximum current of 2 amps. The L298N driver module is easy to use. It contains a good filter circuit and gives you access access to inputs and outputs via pin headers and terminals. The L298N is a dual full-bridge motor driver that allows two DC motors to be connected simultaneously. Note The L298N motor controller follows the H-bridge configuration, which is handy to drive a stepper motors. This driver needs a logic vo...

TB6612FNG Dual Motor Driver Features Today, controlling the speed and direction of DC motors is very important due to their many applications. The most common method of controlling DC motors is the H-Bridge. This method allows you to control both the speed and the direction of the engine. The TB6612FNG dual module uses the same method to control two motors.One of the control pins of this module is PWM. This pin is connected to the gate of the transistor. The longer the duty cycle, the higher the voltag...

VNH2SP30 Moster Motor Driver Module Features Today, speed and direction control of DC motors is very common. A Full-Bridge circuit is one of the simplest methods to control a DC motor. This module is a Full-Bridge motor driver with high output current tolerance.INA, INB and PWM pins are used for controlling the speed and direction of motor rotation. The CS pin is also the current sensor. This pin's output voltage changes 0.13V per 1A.The input voltage should be between 5.5 and 16V. Also, the maximum al...

ULN2003 Stepper Motor Driver Features We usually use stepper motors when we need precise control of the motor shaft. These motors can be used in robot arm, 3D printers, CNC machines, etc. 28BJY-48 is a kind of stepper motor. In full step mode, these motors have a 1 to 64 speed reduction gearbox and eachfull 360 degree rotation consists of 32 steps. The ULN2003 driver is commonly used to control these motors. ULN2003 IC consists of 7 pairs of Darlington transistors, each pair can withstand 500mA and 50V. Th...
