L298N 2A Motor Driver Module

The L298N is an integrated monolithic circuit in a 15- lead Multiwatt and PowerSO20 packages. It is a high voltage, high current dual full-bridge driver designed to accept standard TTL logic levels and drive inductive loads such as relays, solenoids, DC, and stepping motors. Two enable inputs are provided to enable or disable the device independently of the input signals. The emitters of the lower transistors of each bridge are connected together and the corresponding external terminal can be used for the connection of an external sensing resistor. An additional supply input is provided so that the logic works at a lower voltage.

This L298N Based Motor Driver Module is a high-power motor driver perfect for driving DC Motors and Stepper Motors. It uses the popular L298 motor driver IC and has the onboard 5V regulator which it can supply to an external circuit. It can control up to 4 DC motors, or 2 DC motors with directional and speed control.

It is ideal for robotics and mechatronics projects and perfect for controlling motors from microcontrollers, switches, relays, etc. Perfect for driving DC and Stepper for various projects.

SPECIFICATIONS

Pins:

1. Out1: Motor A lead out
2. Out2: Motor A lead out
3. Out3: Motor B lead out
4. Out4: Mo (Can actually be from 5v-35v, just marked as 12v)
5. GND: Ground
6. 5v: 5v input (unnecessary if your power source is 7v-35v, if the power source is 7v-35v then it can act as a 5v out)
7. EnA: Enables PWM signal for Motor A (Please see the “Arduino Sketch Considerations” section)
8. In1: Enable Motor A
9. In2: Enable Motor A
10. In3: Enable Motor B
11. In4: Enable Motor B
12. EnB: Enables PWM signal for Motor B (Please see the “Arduino Sketch Considerations” section)
