General Description
The AP1018 is a Dual H-Bridge small motor driver corresponding to the motor drive voltage 18V. Since the AP1018 has two output channels, it is capable of driving two DC motors or one stepper motor. It can be used up to peak current of 4.5A, so it can be used safely even with a motor that requires a large current at the start of driving.
