how to connect lm293d
Hi, I want to control the direction (forward/reverse) of a 5 dcv 0.5 amp motor, no PWM involved.
I have been looking to use MOSFET, but I have read they are more suitable for PWM control, and I don't like the fact they use complicated gate drivers.
I'm thinking to use regular bipolar transistors.
Any suggestion or comment wheter to use bipolar or mosfet for this application ?
Thanks

I did not mention before, but this is going to be controlled by a PIC controller
