L298N - two-channel motor controller - 12V/2A

Description

The module with the popular L298N driver that allows you to control the direction and speed of two DC motors. Thanks to the screw connectors, ARK power and engines can be easily connected by fastening the wires using a screwdriver. The control signals were output into popular goldpin connectors that allows you to combine the system with commissioning plates, for example, with Arduino using wires.

  

For Arduino users, available is a sample program simplifying maintenance of the module.

 

Leads Pin Description +12V The voltage of the motors power supply. +5V The power of thelogical part with the regulator - active after you remove the jumper 5V.  GND The weight of the system OUT1, OUT2 The channel outputs of the engine A. OUT3, OUT4 The channel outputs of the engine B. ENA PWM signal to control the rotational speed of the engine A. By default, it is connected to 5 V by jumper -it means that the engine works with the maximum speed. IN1, IN2 Control of channel A direction ENB PWM signal to control the rotation speed of the motor B. By default, connected to the 5 V by jumper - it means thatthe engine works with maximum speed. IN3, IN4 Direction control of channel B

high state

low state The motor rotates with the maximum given speed using PWM (different from 0) in a clockwise direction. low state high state The motor rotates at the maximum given speed using PWM (not equal to 0) in a counterclockwise direction. low state low state When indicated high state at the PWM input - fast braking of the motors (fast stop). high state

high state

When indicated high state at the PWM input - fast braking of the motors (fast stop). high state high state

When indictaed low state at the PWM input - free braking (soft stop).
