The HobbyComponents HCMODU0083 MOSFET Driver Module manual provides specifications, wiring details, and Arduino code for controlling DC loads.
The IRF520 MOSFET Driver Module (HCMODU0083) is a compact breakout board designed to switch heavy DC loads such as motors, LEDs, pumps, and solenoid valves using a single microcontroller pin. It features screw terminals, an LED indicator, and operates from 3.3 V or 5 V input.
The document also describes the HCMotor Arduino library that lets you control up to four DC or stepper motors. Installation steps, available functions, and multiple code examples for DC, H‑bridge, and stepper motor control are included, along with legal disclaimer information.
