For those of you that missed the August meeting, there was a great
presentation by Matthew Nuzum on DC motors, regular, servo, and
stepper. He also covered H brdiges, motor control, and Pulse Wave
Moduclation (PWM).

Cheers,
Randle

How about making a meeting mintues doc and loading them to the files
section so people who missed the meeting would know what happened.

Could a IRF510 be used in place of the TIP120?

I've been experimenting with the TIP120 that I have and already let
the smoke out them.

IRF510 is a great part put it's not a pin compatible replacement as far as I know. It's an N channel FET not an NPN transistor so it works a little differently. You'd want to do some more research I think.
