What is L298 module?

This L298N Motor Driver Module is a high power motor driver module for driving DC and Stepper Motors. This module consists of an L298 motor driver IC and a 78M05 5V regulator. L298N Module can control up to 4 DC motors, or 2 DC motors with directional and speed control.

What is L298 motor?

L298 is a high voltage and high current motor drive chip which receives TTL logic signals. They are mostly used when. It is needed to operate different loads like motors and solenoid etc where an H-Bridge is required. High power motor driver is required. Control unit can only provide TTL outputs.

How does a L298 work?

The L298N is a dual H-Bridge motor driver which allows speed and direction control of two DC motors at the same time. The module can drive DC motors that have voltages between 5 and 35V, with a peak current up to 2A.

What is a motor driver module?

The Motor Driver is a module for motors that allows you to control the working speed and direction of two motors simultaneously . This Motor Driver is designed and developed based on L293D IC. L293D is a 16 Pin Motor Driver IC. This is designed to provide bidirectional drive currents at voltages from 5 V to 36 V.

Is L298 and L298N same?

One of the most popular is the L298N. The L298N is a member of a family of IC’s that all have the designation “L298”. The difference between the family members is in the amount of current they can handle. The L298N can handle up to 3 amperes at 35 Volts DC, which is suitable for most hobby motors.

How do you connect 4 motors to L298N?

Connect the Arduino Digital Pins to the L298n Module see our example diagram below, in the diagram we have 4 and 2 DC motors so digital pins D9 D8, D7 and D6 will be connected to IN1, IN2, IN3, and IN4. Then connect Digital 10 to module pin PWM 1 you need to remove the jumper fist plug Digital 5 to module PWM 2.

What is an L298 motor driver?

The L298 is a dual bidirectional motor driver, and allows for easy and independent control of two motors up to 2A each. It is ideal for robotic applications and well suited for connection to a microcontroller requiring just a couple of control lines per motor. It can also be interfaced with simple manual switches, Logic gates and relays.

How many DC motors can I control with l298n?

NOTE: L298N has two such h-bridge circuits meaning you can control up to two DC motor using it. Operating supply voltage up to 46 V Total DC current up to 4 A. 2A per channel Overtemperature protection Logical input voltage up to 1.5 V

What is the use of l298n module?

The L298 module is mostly used to design motor drivers. Here at Seeed, we do offer various L298n Motor Drivers. Double H driver module uses ST L298N dual full-bridge driver, an integrated monolithic circuit in a 15- lead Multiwatt and PowerSO20 packages.

What is the use of the L298 chip in a microcontroller?

L298 is a high voltage and high current motor drive chip which receives TTL logic signals. It is needed to operate different loads like motors and solenoid etc where an H-Bridge is required. High power motor driver is required.
