More likely that one optocoupler will drive 2 drivers, but, will the signal be in withing spec's?
About the power supply, a shared supply will suffice for boths drivers taking in consideration that this drivers will NOT drive different segments of the circuit.
I still have the dreams of having the completed SR controller in my hands and in working conditions powering my bench trany/motor assembly.
