/** A class for driving a DC motor using a full-bridge driver (H-bridge). 
 *
 * The class has an option to drive all 4 transistors gates independently by using 4 PwmOut objects,
 * or to drive the H-bridge with complementary driven transistors using only 2 PwmOut objects.
 *
 * Example of use:
 *
 * @code
 * #include "mbed.h"
 * #include "HBridgeDCMotor.h"
 *
 * HBridgeDCMotor motor(p21, p22);
 *
 * int main() {
 *     float sampleTime = 50e-3, switchingFrequency = 25e3, rampTime = 3;
 *     motor.configure(sampleTime, switchingFrequency, rampTime, rampTime);
 *     while(true) {
 *         motor.setDutyCycle(1);
 *         wait(10);
 *         motor.setDutyCycle(-1);
 *         wait(10);
 *     }
 * }
 * @endcode
