L293D Motor Control Shield

Description

The L293D is a dual-channel H-Bridge motor driver capable of driving a pair of DC motors or a single stepper motor. As the shield comes with two L293D motor driver chipsets, that means it can individually drive up to four DC motors making it ideal for building four-wheel robot platforms. The shield offers a total of 4 H-bridges and each H-bridge can deliver up to 0.6A to the motor. The shield also comes with a 74HC595 shift register that extends 4 digital pins of the Arduino to the 8 direction control pins of two L293D chips.

Arduino-compatible multipurpose Motor Driver shield. Can be used for driving DC, stepper, and servo motors. This is the clone of the popular Adafruit Motor shield. All the libraries and tutorials for that adafruit motor shield are also compatible with this one.

Application
