Some comments on this one if you please ... I am using the PWM facility of a pic to drive an H bridge for a DC motor in which I need both forward and reverse. However, I now have an application where I only want to drive a motor forward but still vary its speed. Can I simply use a single transistor sufficiently rated for current and just turn it on off at the base ?? If I can, could I also parallel the transistors to spread the current sharing ??
