L293D Motor Driver shield for Arduino The L293D motor shield for Arduino is designed as a full-featured motor shield that will be able to power many simple to medium-complexity projects. This motor driver shield can be used to drive up to 4 DC motors . (up to 600MA and 36v). This motor drives can also be used to drive up to 2 Stepper Motors and Servo Motors . The L293D driver shield for Arduino is integrated with a 2-pin terminal block and jumper to connect external power, for separate logic/motor supplies. Features: Two 5V 'hobby' servo connections to the Arduino's high-resolution dedicated timer L293D chipset provides 0.6A per bridge (1.2A peak) with thermal shutdown protection and internal kickback protection diodes on four H-bridges. Motors can be powered by 4.5VDC to 25VDC. Up to four bidirectional DC motors with individual 8-bit speed selection (for a resolution of about 0.5%). Up to two unipolar or bipolar stepper motors with single coil, double coil, or interleaved stepping. Pull-down resistors disable motors during power-up. Large terminal block connectors for connecting wires (18-26AWG) and power. The Arduino reset button brought up top For separate logic/motor supplies, a 2-pin terminal block and a jumper are used to connect external power. Compatible with the Arduino Mega 1280 and 2560, as well as the Diecimila, Duemilanove, and UNO. Pinout Applications: Control DC, Stepper, and Servo Motors with L293D Motor Driver Shield and Arduino Can be used to control DC motors, stepper motors, and servo motors This motor drives compatible with Arduino UNO and Mega
