TB67H420FTG Dual Motor Driver Carrier

TB67H420FTG Dual Motor Driver Carrier - The TB67H420FTG is an H-Bridge motor driver created by Toshiba. It can be used for two brushed DC motors rated at 10 to 47 volts. It can even supply about 1.7A continuously to each dc motors and 3.4A to a single motor. It can tolerate peak currents up to 4.5 A per channel (dual) or 9 A (single) for a few seconds, making it a good choice for small- to medium-sized motors that run at higher voltages. The TB67H420FTG is a great IC, but its small surface-mount package makes it difficult for the typical student or hobbyist to use; our breakout board makes it easy to use with standard solderless breadboards and 0.1″ perfboards. Since this board is a carrier for the TB67H420FTG, we recommend careful reading of the TB67H420FTG datasheet (460k pdf). The board ships populated with SMD components, including the TB67H420FTG and a reverse battery protection circuit.

Frequently asked questions about TB67H420FTG Dual Motor Driver Carrier

Q1: What are the different Types of Motor Drivers?

Depending on the type of control they offer, we do categorize the drivers. For instance, while some give high-speed control, others offer non-speed control. Notably, many drivers can be used with a single motor. But certain particular drivers can operate a single engine. The motor drivers for various sorts of motors are listed below.

Stepper motor – A4988, L293, DRV8833, ULN2003
DC motor – A4988, L293, DRV8833
Servo motor – L293

Q2: What are the main Motor-driven Components?

The servo motor, controller, power supply unit, and required servo motor connections are needed. A controller, motor driver circuit, DC motor, power supply unit, and the required direct connections are required for the dc motor.

A microprocessor or a microcontroller may serve as this controller. A current amplifier that boosts current from the microcontroller driving the motor is the motor driver control circuit.

The motor also generates motion. A motor drive controller is frequently needed for the process of connecting the engine to the controller, brushless motor, and stepper motor. Additionally, the power supply only provides the motor with the necessary current. 

Q3: What Kind of Capacitor Does Oriental Motor Use?

UL-approved vapor-deposition electrode capacitors are used by Oriental Motor. A metalized piece of paper or plastic film serves as the element in this kind of capacitor. A "self-healing (SH) capacitor" is another name for this particular capacitor. Despite using paper elements for the majority of its predecessors, the plastic film capacitor has gained popularity in recent years due to its small size.

1. Rated Conduction Time

The rated conduction time, when used at the rated load, rated voltage rated temperature, and rated frequency is the minimum design life of the capacitor. A 40,000-hour life expectancy is considered average. When a capacitor breaks, it may smoke or catch fire. To prevent potential problems, we advise replacing the capacitor once the rated conduction time has passed.

2. Safety Feature of Capacitor

Some capacitors have a safety function that enables safe and complete disengagement from circuits in the case of a dielectric breakdown, preventing smoke and/or fire. Capacitors used in Oriental Motor products have undergone a 10,000 A fault current test and have UL-approved safety features.
