TLE94112ESRPIHATTOBO1

Full Half-Bridge (H Bridge) Drivers Overview

The TLE94112ESRPIHATTOBO1 is a Raspberry Pi HAT evaluation board designed for DC motor control applications. It integrates the MOTIX™ TLE94112ES twelve-half-bridge driver and a TLS4125D0EP V50 buck converter. The board accepts an input voltage range of 5.5 V to 20 V and provides a regulated 5 V output with a current capability of up to 2.5 A. The half-bridge outputs support a load current range of 0.9 A to 2.5 A. Communication with the host microcontroller is handled via a 16-bit SPI interface featuring zero-clock diagnosis capabilities.

Full Half-Bridge (H Bridge) Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required hardware revision and accessory configuration. Confirm compatibility with the target Raspberry Pi model generation before integration. Ensure the power supply meets the specified input voltage range to prevent damage to the integrated buck converter and driver circuitry during operation.

Full Half-Bridge (H Bridge) Drivers Selection Notes

Select this evaluation board when rapid prototyping of multi-motor solutions on a Raspberry Pi platform is required. It is suitable for developers needing to validate the TLE94112ES driver characteristics in a compact form factor. Consider alternative shields if Arduino compatibility is needed instead of Raspberry Pi integration.

Full Half-Bridge (H Bridge) Drivers Part Context

This product belongs to Infineon's MOTIX™ family of multi-half-bridge drivers, specifically tailored for automotive and industrial motion control. The TLE94112ES chip serves as the core component, offering high integration and robust protection features. This HAT facilitates the transition from chip-level design to system-level application development for makers and engineers.

Full Half-Bridge (H Bridge) Drivers Replacement Considerations

For Arduino-based designs, consider the TLE94112ES_SHIELD which utilizes the same driver IC but adapts the interface for Arduino Uno. Other Infineon motor control shields are available for different bridge counts and voltage requirements.
