Question For Dan Mauch

Dan, or anyone else who might know;

Have you ever tried to use an SGS Thompson GS-D200? It is basically a
L297/L298
with most of the glue components in one module. Add a couple resisters,
a current limiting pot and some wire and your done. What I was wondering
about was
since the output is only 2 amps could those outputs be run into some
high power
transisters to acheive approx 10 amps. If so how would the current
limiting be
accomplished? Design so the gain of the output transisters is approx. 5
then
adjust the current limiting pot on the GS-D200 (or L297/L298 combo) to
equal 2
amps at the output of the H-Bridge (2A * 5 = 10A)?

Thanks

Bill
