L293D Motor Driver Drive Shield for Arduino is an easy-to-use expansion board designed to control DC motors and stepper motors through an Arduino. It features dual H-bridge motor drivers based on the L293D IC and provides screw terminals for motor and power connections. Ideal for robotics and automation projects.
Key Features:
- Dual H-Bridge Driver: Drives up to 4 DC motors or 2 stepper motors independently.
- Stackable Shield Design: Easily stacks on Arduino Uno or Mega boards.
- Built-in Diodes: Protects against back EMF generated by motors.
- Separate Power Supply: External motor power and onboard logic power separation supported.
- Screw Terminals: Allows secure motor and power wire connections.
Technical Specifications:
- Motor Driver IC: L293D
- Logic Voltage: 5V (from Arduino)
- Motor Supply Voltage: 4.5V to 36V (recommended 7V to 12V)
- Output Current: Up to 600mA per channel (peak 1.2A)
- Number of Channels: 4 (two L293D H-bridges)
- Current Protection: Thermal shutdown in L293D
Mechanical Specifications:
- Board Dimensions: 68.6mm x 53.4mm (standard Arduino shield size)
- Connectors: Standard Arduino headers, screw terminals, and servo headers
- Mounting Holes: 4 x M3 screw holes for securing to enclosures or chassis
Pinout and Wiring:
- Motor Pins: M1, M2, M3, M4 for 4 DC motors or 2 stepper motors
- Power Pins: VS (motor power), VCC (logic power), GND
- Control Pins: Uses Arduino digital pins D3–D11 by default
Datasheet and Documentation:
- Download L293D Datasheet (PDF)
