Hi !

I need help on this. I want a 9V DC motor to rotate FWD and REV using a digital out put,( i.e i have only two out put either 1 or 0. ) If I am not giving any input to motor I want it to be still. The problem is the output is always high or low so I can assign 1 for FWD and 0 for REV.

Or, let me put it this way, I am trying to control my RC car, which has one motor to control FWD and REV. How can i get three states of motor with Basic Stamp out. What kind of ckt is needed. :?:

Really appreciate if any one can help on this.

Thanks,
JAS

It's called an 'h-bridge', there are a great many threads about them on these forums.

hi, here is a layout from a robot I'm about to make. Now I've got examinations so it'll be down for a while. I howe it's quite complete. I've already test it like it is now and it works perfect! offcourse there are some forbidden conditions --> you should ONLY use U1 and U4 OR U2 and U3.. not U1 and U3 or U2 and U4; in this case it's a shortcut. and if you use U1 and U2.. nothing happens ofcourse

but anyhow you should have some knowledge of H-bridges first to understand the workingproces.

The TC4427 (where you can easely find the datasheet from) is to answer on your question. when high on the input it outputs the VDD you attacheted it on

good luck!

In your schematic...the top H-bridge isn't connected to ground. Just an observation.

hehe, yes it isn't.. but the schematic isn't finished yet. It's just a quick drawing of how far my project is build. But thx to notice that :-)
