Brushed or brushless DC motor controller recommendation

In order to build a 2 linear-actuators controller (12V, 5A) I would like to get recommendation on which product fits the best.

The actuators would be this .

And at least which DC motor category fits the best
  • brushed or brushless?

These actuators use brushed DC motors. The SDC2130 would be a good choice for it. See www.youtube.com/user/roboteqinc?feature=mhee#p/u/0/xptBWoCq6Rc

Thanks for your reply, but the change of status of a linear actuator may not be fast enough.

Would you mind to suggest a controller that fits two solenoids instead (still ~ 12V, 5A) ?

The SDC2130 can comfortabley drive this voltage and current.

However, solenoids work differently than motor. So the mode and feedback will need to be different.

The SDC2130 has multiple operating modes and one will surely match your requirements.
