For either a 4.0 or 3.2, I need to boost the output of a pin, for example
void setup() {
pinMode(5, OUTPUT); // and later
void loop() {
digitalWrite(5, HIGH); // produces ~3.3v on pin 6
yet I need 5v. to trigger the DC motor drive module input of this part https://www.droking.com/160W-2-Chan...pler-Isolation-Dual-H-bridge-Motor-Controller
Q1. Please provide a link to a schematic to help me place a transistor correctly on the breadboard.
Q2. Would any old transistor do the job? I've got a few in my Radio Shack NPN PNP stash.
Ideally I'd also like to pass along a PWM value to control the speed of the vacuum motor, and to that end I've got
void loop() {
analogWrite(6, 100); // to suitably dim an LED
Q3. Would the solution to Q1 above also pertain passing along a suitably strong 5v PWM signal to a DC motor drive module input?
I've scanned some forum postings and I think I almost understand that this can be done. A simple simple schematic with added instructions would be most appreciated.

Thank you, Steve
