Motor Driver Shield (L298N)
The L298N Motor Driver Shield allows microcontrollers like Arduino to control DC motors and stepper motors efficiently. It acts as an interface between the low-power logic of the controller and the high-power motors.
How It Works?
The shield uses an L298 dual H-Bridge IC to control motor direction and speed. It takes logic signals from a microcontroller and provides sufficient current and voltage to the motors.
Key Features
- Dual H-Bridge driver for 2 DC motors
- Supports motor voltage up to 35V
- Up to 2A current per channel
- PWM control for speed variation
- Built-in 5V regulator for logic supply
Applications of Motor Driver Shield
Motor drivers are key components in robotics and automation projects that involve motor control.
Robotic Cars
Drives DC motors for 2WD or 4WD robotic vehicles.
Line Following Robots
Used for motor control based on sensor inputs.
Automation Systems
Controls conveyor belts and actuators in machines.
Smart Fans / Pumps
Used to control small DC fans or water pumps.
