“XDDCMD-1”: The “XDDCMD-1” is a dual DC motor driver designed for driving motors rated at +12V to +55V at up to 3A continous (6A PEAK) per motor. The simple interface and control options allow the "XDDCMD-1" to easily be integrated into your next design that requires the drive of 1 or 2 DC motors. The units also has a "THERMAL FLAG" option as well as a "CURRENT SENSE" line for monitoring each motor. The control lines are TTL / CMOS ready for direct interface to your favorite microcontroller.
EncoderGeek is a reseller for the “XDDCMD-1” made by Xavien.com.  Our price is the same as XavienYou save on shipping if you order other parts with the “XDDCMD-1“.

My review/notes:  I use this driver for all my experiments with servo and stepper motors and for pre shipping testing purposes on all customer motors.

It is a great little amplifier /driver and is just right for running all the motors that I provide.  It does not provide any intelligence other than automatic shut down on overheat.  The intelligence is provided by the microcontroller that you program to run this driver. 

It will run two DC motors or one four wire stepper motor with ease.  It is very easy to control. Needs TTL or CMOS level signals.

It needs the following 5 wires for one motor (Half the driver)
   PWM signal
   Brake or enable signal
   Direction signal
   Positive power (12 volts to 55 volts at up to 3 amps)
   Ground for power and logic.
