SHIELD_BTS7_H-BRIDGE
Overview
The H-BRIDGE_BTS7040-2 shield for Arduino is a universal development kit for Infineon’s PROFET+2 12V Smart High-Side Switch BTS7040-2EPA in combination with an Infineon IPG20N04S4-18A Dual N-channel Low Side Switch in H-Bridge configuration which is designed for (but not limited to) the control of DC motors or other inductive loads up to 3.5 A in industrial and home appliance applications. An Arduino Uno, XMC4700 Relax Kit, XMC1100 Boot Kit, or similar board connected to the shield, can control the H-BRIDGE_BTS7040-2 shield via the general IO pins (5V).
