           One of the basic aspects of robotics involves being able to control any type of locomotion. Motor control, through digital electronics, has become widely regarded as an accurate and well developed area and while many mysteries still remain, an equal number of motor control methods exist. The most simple of which is known as the H-Bridge.
           The SN754410 is a motor controller made by Texas Instruments. Don't let its tiny size fool you, it is very capable, very simple and very powerful. This tutorial will use the SN754410 to show you how to control two motors independently and accurately. See the images and video below for an introduction.
