Dual motor driver LaunchPad booster pack
Parker designed a dual motor driver booster pack for the MSP430 LaunchPad. It’s based around the DRV8833 iterated motor driver capable of controlling voltages up to 10.8V and handling current up to 2A. You can download the Eagle source files from his site.

So far I have not found a motor controller yet so I decided to make one. It uses the Ti DRV8833PWPR Dual H-bridge Motor Driver chip. The chip is capable of 2Amps per motor channel and a motor voltage from 2.7V to 10.8V. Logic voltage for the DRV8833 is 3.3V which makes it a perfect match for the MSP-430 LaunchPad.

It should really read 2A per channel at peak. The motor voltage trace that comes into the DRV8833 is a bit on the small side. 2oz copper makes up for it a bit though.
a very excellent driver board im planing on populating soon.
