1.INTRODUCTION

Enhanced SmartDrive40 is an enhancement version of SmartDrive40 which is designed to           
drive medium to high power brushed DC motor with current capacity up to 80A peak and               
40A continuously. MOSFETs are switched at 16 KHz to ensure quiet operation and no             
annoying whining sound. Besides, it also equipped with a microcontroller unit to provide            
smartfeaturessuchasmultipleinputmode,currentlimitingandthermalprotection.
