Hi,
Well now that you mention it, i wonder what the prospects of using two in parallel might be, since you have to buy 10. What is that about 70 cents or something in USD ?
I checked Mouser, $1.17 each, 10 for 0.91 cents each.
I like transistor H bridges because you can control things that are normally harder to control, like when you have to reverse the polarity of a motor.
