L298N Motor Driver Module

The L298N motor driver module is a popular dual H-bridge motor driver integrated circuit that facilitates the control of DC motors and stepper motors.

• Motor Types: Suitable for controlling DC motors and bipolar stepper motors.

• Voltage Range: Typically operates with a motor supply voltage ranging from 5V to 35V.

• Current Handling: Can handle peak currents up to 2A per bridge (or 4A with proper heat sinking).

• Logic Voltage: Supports low-level logic signals (TTL/CMOS) for control, typically driven by a microcontroller.

• Control Modes: Offers forward, reverse, brake, and standby control modes for motor direction and speed.

• Built-in Protection: Built-in diodes provide protection against back electromotive force (EMF) generated by the motors.

• Heat Sink: Some modules include a built-in heat sink to dissipate heat generated during operation.

• Enable Pins: Enable pins allow for easy on/off control of each motor independently.

• Versatility: Widely used in robotics, mechatronics, and various motor control applications.

• Compact Design: Compact module with screw terminals for easy motor and power supply connections.

• Applications: Commonly used in DIY projects, robotics, and automation for motor control.

• PWM Compatibility: Supports Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) for speed control of DC motors.

• Current Sensing: Some models may include current sensing capabilities for feedback control.
