PWM Motor Driver with H-Bridge

Description:

This DC Motor driver for pulse wide modulation is designed for engines with a maximal power consumption of 200 watts. It works with a so called H -Bridge. It has three input pins, two for the direction and one for the pwm-signal. The inputs are designed for logic level signals ecpecially for microcontroller outputs. The DC motor has to be plugged at the two output pins. There are two seperate Pins for the supply voltage.

Table for the input signals:

01 02 direction
high low left*
low high right*
high high stop
low low stop

*maybe the direction is inverse, depends on how you connected the motor.

PWM Parameters:

high = 100%

low = 0%

Note: Since i got a couple of mails i recommend to read this first:
This device is a result from a former highschool project and maybe there are a lot of better ways to construct a device like this. If you don't need to supply a very powerful motor i recommend you to use an integrated circuit like the L293. But this device simply looks mighty and is really robust so just build it and be happy with a simple rock-solid design.
