From the project
H-bridge with MOSFETs and IR2110 designed with KiCAD
A professional H-bridge motor driver PCB designed for bidirectional DC motor control with 24V power supply and microcontroller-based control interface.
This H-bridge circuit board enables bidirectional control of DC motors with overcurrent protection, isolated gate drivers, and integrated power regulation. The design features high-current MOSFETs capable of handling significant motor loads with proper heat dissipation.

H-bridge: common questions
What microcontroller does the H-bridge use?
The H-bridge is built around the ATmega328P-A, from the AVR/Arduino family.
How big is the H-bridge PCB?
The H-bridge measures 97 × 50 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the H-bridge?
47 components, from 28 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the H-bridge design files?
From the Mohamed-U3/H-bridge-PCB repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the H-bridge design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which Mohamed-U3 chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the H-bridge without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug AVR/Arduino firmware against it before you order a PCB.
