L293D Motor Driver Board - 2-channel motor driver 16V/0.6 A - Shield for Arduino - Iduino ST1138

• Power supply:4,5V to 16 V
• Driver: 2 x L293D
• Maximum current per channel: 600 mA (temporary up to 1,2 A)
• The shift register 74HC595
• The number of supported motors:
  • 4 DC motors
  • 2 stepper motors
• 2 servo connectors
• The reset button

The module allows you to control four DC motors (DC) or two stepper motors using Arduino kits. The system allows to adjust the direction and speed of rotation of the motors with a current consumption of up to 600 mA.

To prevent damage to the computer's port and the Arduino module through the consumption of a relatively large current by the motors, power supply line from USB, was separated from the power of the engines themselves. The manufacturer recommends connecting an external power source. For this purpose, you can use the power supply DC or any rechargeable battery. The user can also separately power a module of Arduino and the Motor Shield. It is necessary to disconnect the jumper PWR_IMP. This may be recommended when the supply voltage is above 12 V.
