Motor control chip 3.3V

Translate This Thread From English to

Threaded View
Hello,
I am in a desperate need for a DC motor control chip that runs out of
3.3v. More or less something like L293D which requires 5V. Has anybody
seen something like that?


Re: Motor control chip 3.3V


Do you want a chip using a power of 3.3v for itself, or to ooutput
3.3v
to the motors?
Anyway many chips can work in a range of power from a minimum to
a maximum. You can verify on the L293D datasheet what is its minimum
voltage.
Or you can use special chip to transform 3.3 to 5v.

The motors are rated 6V. My board's logic runs 3.3v...

Today I have found this producer of DC-DC regulator:

This seems to permit 3.3 to 5 conversion.
