Question:
Can I use the Motor Shield as an LED driver?
Logic behind the idea:
Currently I’m using an external led driver (well actually just a bench power supply ) with a mosfet to act as a strobe. This is great for testing but good luck strapping a bench power supply to a commercial product. While doing my daily browsing of the OpenMV website for possible ideas, I stumbled across the the Motor Shield. Looking at the data sheet:
- Output Voltage 15v O1,O2 pins
- Output current 3.2A 10 ms Single pulse
- Switching frequency 100kHz
Being that my LED is 12v 1A, this seems to falls directly in line with my power requirements.
Am I missing anything here?
