question
H Bridge As On/Off Switch
Morning All This is one of those really, really, really basic questions. If I want to power up my robot (turn him on/off) via the EZ Board I'm assuming I simply use an H Bridge. I'm using a 12 volt system so an H Bridge is the only safe way if I want the EZ Board to control this function, right? Thanks, Daniel
