Hey guys, will the “3A 4V-16V 2 Channel DC Motor Driver” work in a similar fashion to a L298N Dual H-bridge motor controller? Im looking to drive a 12v 3a Linear actuator alongside an esp32 module.

Yes, this is an H-bridge MOSFET and compatible with both 5V and 3.3V logic. That means you can use it with an ESP32.

Hi, I was wondering if this motor driver would be correct to power two hobby motors (SKU: ROB-11696) with an operating voltage between 1V to 3V and a max current draw of 0.8A.
I needed a motor driver/ controller that can receive commands from a Raspberry Pi and allow the motors to move clockwise and anti-clockwise.
Thanks.
Hi Santiago
The user guide might say something different (I have not looked) but the specs say
“Operating Voltage: DC 4V to 16V”
Under these circumstance you can only try but I wouldn’t hold my breath for operation down to 1V.
Cheers Bob

Hi @Santiago201902, Welcome to the Forums!!!
Bob is correct that this would likely be the wrong driver for your application, The DRV8835 is likely the right driver for this application.
The Motor Voltage input is rated for 0-11V and can be driven by a Raspberry Pi
I hope this helps with your project.
