That driver does not have current limiting so be careful using it. You will need to work with 5V or it will burn, depending on the motor attached to it.
As for using it, serch for tommylight on this forum, i did an how to build the cheapest drivers possible for use with Linuxcnc, and there you have the configs ready made, they do work with the driver you have.

Ok here it is
forum.linuxcnc.org/forum/27-driver-board...r-drives-for-diy-ers

You also have info on doing current limiting that you have to use with your drive to protect them.
Just noticed, the files are missing on that post, will upload them now if i can find them.

Regards,
Tom
