I am trying to drive the motors on a robot (4*2A Stall current), and am trying to find a way to make a cheap h-bridge. Sadly, FET drivers are quite expensive, especially when you need to drive 16 FET's. I am wondering if anyone here knows how/if the outputs of the L298 (2 h-bridges/chip = 4 half-bridges per chip so I would need 4) could be used to drive the FETS in a discrete h-bridge(im planning to use all n-channel, NXP PSMN022-30PL. If not, can you come up with an solution to drive these motors? At the low voltage I am using(7.2v) I cant afford much voltage loss, so the lower the on resistance the better. I am willing to spend about $35. Thanks - Connor
