The TLE94112ELSHIELDTOBO1 from Infineon is a DC Motor Shield with a TLE94112EL for Arduino. The DC Motor Shield is a small evaluation board with a TLE94112EL for use with Arduinos. The TLE94112EL is capable of driving up to 6 small DC motors in parallel mode or up to 11 motors in cascade mode. The Shield can be controlled by a microcontroller via an SPI interface. For example, an Arduino Uno R3 or an Infineon XMC1100 starter kit can be used as the master. The board features Infineon’s TLE94112EL, a twelve-fold half-bridge driver with built-in MOSFETs. Each half-bridge can drive peak currents up to 0.9 A and DC currents over a range of 200 mA to 500 mA, depending on application conditions and the number of outputs enabled. The DC Motor Driver Shield has active reverse polarity protection with the IPD50P04P4L-11 P-Channel MOSFET. Outputs can be used standalone or combined to increase capacity up to 3.6A.
Driver with 12 half-bridge outputs to drive DC motors, resistive or inductive loads
SPI interface with zero clock diagnostics
Improved EMC performance
Integrated PWM generator with 3 different frequencies (80Hz, 100Hz, 200Hz)
Shield enables compact design for multi-motor applications
Cost-effective design for multi-engine applications
Less communication with the microphone thanks to the integrated PWM generator and zero clock diagnostics
Lower cost by reducing the number of external components to meet EME requirements
Protected against overtemperature, overcurrent, overvoltage, and undervoltage
