    Default driver amps

    hi folks,
    I have a 18V 3A cordless drill motor. I want to mod it for a servo application. The bigger driver I found is a SN754410 which covers up to 36V...Ok, but only 1A.

    If using them of course identically: Is it possible to connect 3 of theese IC's so to sum its amps 1A + 1A + 1A to my motor ?

    An L6203 H-bridge might do it for you.Its good up to 48v and 4amps.But you must attach it to a good heat sink or it will fry.
