    I just brought a stepper motor H bridge IC and plan to use use it for my 12V bipolar stepper motor. May I know is this IC can use for my 12V bipolar stepper motor? How to check from the data sheet? If it is not. What kind of H bridge IC is suitable for me because I need and IC to control the motor speed and direction? Thanks.  :)

The H bridge IC will burn out very quickly if the motor draws more current than the IC's current rating.

It is your motor. I know nothing about it. Get an H-bridge IC that matches the spec's of your motor.
