LMD18200 H-Bridge Motor Driver

After months of procrastination, I have finally put together the project page for the LMD18200 H-bridge motor driver. I uploaded all of the schematic and PCB documents as well as a simple bill of materials.

    thanks for the info.. im using this chip myself. . but im still having issues. could you post a test circuit, for use without a microcontroller… i am trying to use it for R/C purposes at the moment.. and have taken an RC out of an old car.. its signal is going to be from the motors going backwards or forwards or nothing.. but im having problems making the chip do anything desirable..

    oh, and whats a bootstrap?

    thanks

    Hi, i got two of the LMD18200 H-Bridge chips and got it working nicely @ 12v. the moter was lite about 200mA max.
    but i have a problem the chip now has pin 6 and 7 shorted! even when i have the chip disconnected the pin’s are shorted, do you know if this would mean that it is blown?

    Regards
