Run two solenoids or a single DC motor with up to 800mA per channel using the supersimple L9110H Hbridge driver. This bridge chip is an 8 DIP package so it's easy to fit onto any breadboard or perfboard. Each chip contains one full Hbridge (two half Hbridges). That means you can drive 2 solenoids or a single DC motor bidirectionally. Just make sure they're good for under 800 mA since that's the limit of this chip. They do handle a peak of 1.5A but that's just for a short amount of time. Good for motor power voltages from 2.5V up to 12V! This driver comes with builtin kickback diodes internally so you don't have to worry about the inductive kick damaging your project or driver! Saves board space too! You can PWM an input per driver so you can control motor speed and direction. This chip doesn't have split logic/power pins but it seems that you can use 3.3V logic level with higher voltages no problem.
