- Volume di fornituratage: Connect a DC power source between 2V and 10V to the '+' and '-' terminals.
- Collegamenti del motore: Connect Motor-A to the 'MOTOR-A' terminals and Motor-B to the 'MOTOR-B' terminals.
- Ingresso del segnale di controllo: Connect your microcontroller's I/O pins to IN1, IN2, IN3, and IN4. The signal voltage range for these inputs is 1.8V-7V.
- IN1 and IN2 control Motor-A.
- IN3 and IN4 control Motor-B.
4. Istruzioni per l'uso
4.1 Using the ST-Link V2
Once connected, the ST-Link V2 can be used with compatible development environments such as IAR, KEIL, ST-LINK Utility, STVD, and STVP. Install the necessary drivers and software on your computer.

4.2 Controlling Motors with the Dual H-Bridge
The Dual H-Bridge module controls DC motors based on the logic levels applied to its IN1-IN4 pins. The following table outlines the control modes for each motor:
A table illustrating the control logic for the Dual H-Bridge module, showing input combinations (IN1, IN2, IN3, IN4) for various motor operations like Forward, Reversion, Standby, and Brake for both Motor-A and Motor-B.
| MOTORE A CORRENTE CONTINUA | MODALITÀ | IN1 | IN2 | IN3 | IN4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MOTOR-A | Inoltrare | 1/PWM | 0 | ||
| Reversibilità | 0 | 1/PWM | |||
| Stand-by | 0 | 0 | |||
| Freno | 1 | 1 | |||
| MOTOR-B | Inoltrare | 1/PWM | 0 | ||
| Reversibilità | 0 | 1/PWM | |||
| Stand-by | 0 | 0 | |||
| Freno | 1 | 1 |
Nota:
- "1" represents a high level; "0" represents a low level; "PWM" indicates a pulse width modulated wave, used to adjust the duty cycle to change speed.
- IN1 and IN2 control MOTOR-A; IN3 and IN4 control MOTOR-B. These two motor controls are completely independent.
- INx anti-input common conduction function: if a pin is floating, it is equivalent to a low input.
5. Manutenzione
To ensure the longevity and reliable operation of your ST-Link V2 and H-Bridge modules, follow these general maintenance guidelines:
- Conservare i dispositivi in un ambiente asciutto, lontano da umidità e temperature estreme.
- Avoid exposing the modules to static electricity. Handle them by the edges or use anti-static precautions.
- Periodically inspect connections for any loose wires or damage.
- Clean the modules gently with a soft, dry cloth if dust accumulates. Do not use liquids or harsh chemicals.
6. Risoluzione Dei Problemi
If you encounter issues with your ST-Link V2 or H-Bridge modules, consider the following troubleshooting steps:
