A motor driver shield for Arduino Uno, Mega and Duemilanove.

 

Use the integrated circuit L293DNE (Quad Half H-bridge) that provides 0.6A per bridge (1.2A peak) with thermal protection and kickback diodes integrated.

 

DC motors from 4.5VDC to 20VDC

• Can control up to four DC motors individually controlled speed (256 levels)
• Can control up to 2 stepper motors.

 

Features :

• 4 bi-color LED to indicate the direction of rotation for each motor.
• I2C bus used to minimize digital output pin used.
• Only 4 Arduino PWM outputs and 2 analog input are used
• Easy programming thanks to the library developed for this shield (see below).
• Pull down resistors built to disable the motors during board startup.

• 2 screw terminals to simplify wiring to the motors;
• 1 screw terminal dedicated to motor power supply (anti-interference improvment).
• ATX power supply header on the board. ATX 12VDC can be used for motor power by shorting dedicated solder jumper.
• 8 additional outputs available on 16 PWM intensity levels
• Control sensors and outputs using the same shield.

 

Arduino reset button brought the shield.

 

Compatible with Arduino Uno, Uno CMS, Duemilanove and Mega
