# DC-Motor-Control-TLE94112EL Library
<img src="https://github.com/Infineon/Assets/blob/master/Pictures/TLE94112EL_Shield.png" width="400">

Library of Infineon's [DC Motor Shield with TLE94112EL for Arduino](https://www.infineon.com/cms/en/product/productType.html?productType=5546d46259d9a4bf015a369885a95505) for Arduino.

## Summary
The DC motor shield is a small evaluation board equipped with TLE94112EL for use with Arduino. The TLE94112EL is capable to drive up to 6 small DC motors in parallel mode or up to 11 DC motors in cascaded mode. All outputs can drive up to 0.9A. The outputs can be used stand-alone or combined to increase driving capability up to 3.6A. The implemented integrated [TLE94112EL](https://www.infineon.com/cms/en/product/power/motor-control-and-gate-driver-ics/intelligent-motor-control-ics/multi-half-bridge-driver/TLE94112EL/productType.html?productType=5546d46254e133b4015538ca99e552a1) is a protected twelve-fold half-bridge driver designed especially for automotive motion control applications such as Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) flap DC motor control.

## Key Features and Benefits
* Driver with 12 half-bridge outputs to drive DC motors, resistive or inductive loads
* Driver is protected against over-temperature, over-current, over-voltage, under-voltage and enables diagnosis of over-current, over-voltage, under-voltage
* SPI interface with zero clock diagnosis
* Enhanced EMC performance
* Integrated PWM generator with 3 different frequencies (80Hz, 100Hz, 200Hz)
* Shield enables compact design for multi-motor applications
* Efficient design for multi-motor applications
* Less communication with µC through integrated PWM generator and zero clock diagnosis
* Reducing external components to meet EMC requirements

## Target Applications:
* Multi-motor applications
* DC motors and voltage controlled bipolar stepper motors
* Toys
* HVAC systems

## Usage
Please follow the example sketches in the /examples directory in this library to learn more about the usage of the library.

## Board Information, Datasheet and Additional Information
A PDF summarizing the features and layout of the DC motor control shield is stored on the Infineon homepage [here](https://www.infineon.com/dgdl/Infineon-DC_Motor_Control_Shield_with_TLE94112EL_UserManual-UM-v01_00-EN.pdf?fileId=5546d46259d9a4bf015a4755351304ac).
