I need to control a pair of motors using a PIC16f877a for one my projects.
The motors would be subjected to an approximate load of 1200 grams to 2000 grams and they would be required to move forward, backward and should be able to respond to commands from the PIC on a dime.
I would like to know, what kind of circuit I should be using. I have heard about H-bridge. And I have seen a few here and there. But Im not sure which one to use. Any recommendation with regards to what motors I could use for this purpose would also be helpful.
I know my question seems very vague and generic, but Im not much of an electronics guy. I come from a computer science background.
Thank you.
