## Description

The DFRobot 2×1.2A DC Motor Driver is a compact dual-channel motor driver based on the TB6612FNG IC. It requires only four GPIO pins to control two DC motors, using the same control logic as the DFRobot L298N motor driver — making existing L298N code directly compatible. Each channel delivers up to 1.2 A continuous drive current with 2 A peak (continuous pulse) or 3.2 A peak (single pulse). The standard XH2.54 pin header can be plugged directly into a breadboard, making it ideal for prototyping and compact builds. Key Features Dual-Channel Full-Bridge Driver – Drive two DC motors independently TB6612FNG IC – Efficient driver with low on-resistance 1.2 A Continuous Per Channel – Up to 2 A peak (continuous pulse), 3.2 A peak (single pulse) 4-Pin Control – Only four GPIO pins needed to drive both motors L298N Compatible – Same control logic, directly compatible code Breadboard Friendly – Standard XH2.54 pin header Specifications Logic Voltage (VCC) – 2.7–5.5 V Motor Voltage (VM) – 2.5–12 V Driver Channels – 2 Continuous Current – 1.2 A per channel Peak Current – 2 A (continuous pulse) / 3.2 A (single pulse) Dimensions – 20 × 19.5 mm Ideal For Small robot builds and mobile platforms Arduino motor control projects Breadboard prototyping with DC motors Compact motor driver solutions where L298N is too large Resources DFRobot Wiki – TB6612FNG Motor Driver
