L293D Motor Driver Shield For Arduino

Description

The L293D Motor Driver Shield is a versatile add-on board for Arduino that enables you to control two DC motors or stepper motors. It features four H-bridges, allowing you to drive the motors in both forward and reverse directions, as well as adjust their speed.

Key Features

• Dual H-bridge: Controls two DC or stepper motors independently.
• Forward and Reverse Control: Drives motors in both directions.
• Speed Control: Adjusts motor speed using PWM (Pulse Width Modulation).
• Easy to Use: Simple connections to Arduino pins.
• Onboard LEDs: Indicate motor activity.
• 5V and 12V Power Supply: Can be powered by Arduino's 5V or an external 12V source.

Applications

• Robotics: Build robots with various movement capabilities.
• Line Follower: Create line-following robots for competitions or experiments.
• Autonomous Vehicles: Develop self-driving vehicles or cars.
• Educational Projects: Learn about motor control and robotics.
• Hobby Projects: Build creative motorized devices.
