Perfect for small robotics projects

This TC118S module works flawlessly with my ESP32. The PWM control is smooth, and it handles my small DC motor without getting too hot. Great value for the price.

Compact and efficient

The form factor is tiny, which saved me a lot of space on my custom PCB design. Signal response is instant when using PWM from the STM32.

Solid performance for the cost

Used this for a prototype conveyor belt controller. The current limiting feature saved my motor during a stall test. Will definitely order more for production.

Good driver, clear documentation needed

The hardware is solid, but I had to look up the pinout online as the included sheet was minimal. Once wired correctly, it performed exactly as expected.

Reliable component for student kits

We bought ten of these for our university lab. They are robust enough for students to make wiring mistakes without immediately burning out. Highly recommended for education.

Easy to use but needs heat management

Very easy to wire up to an Arduino Uno. It drove my fan motor perfectly. Just make sure you have some airflow if running at high speeds for long periods.

5 FAQ

Q: What is the maximum voltage the motor side can handle?

A: The module supports a motor supply voltage range of approximately 4.5V to 10V. Please ensure your motor voltage stays within this range to avoid damaging the chip.

Q: Is this compatible with 3.3V logic microcontrollers like ESP32?

A: Yes, the input logic threshold is compatible with both 3.3V and 5V systems, making it fully compatible with ESP32, STM32, and standard 5V Arduino boards.

Q: Can I connect two of these to control a dual-motor robot car?

A: Absolutely. Since this is a single-channel driver, you simply need two modules to independently control two DC motors for differential drive robots.

Q: Does it come with header pins soldered?

A: Typically, these modules are shipped with unsoldered header pins to allow for flexible mounting options. You will need to solder them yourself or use jumper wires directly.

Q: Can this module drive a stepper motor?

A: No, the TC118S is designed specifically for single-channel DC motors or solenoids. For stepper motors, you would need a dedicated stepper driver like the A4988 or DRV8825.
