This L298-based motor driver module is a high performance motor driver ideal for driving DC motors and stepper motors. The popular L298 motor driver IC is used, and the 5V regulator which can supply to an external circuit is carried. You can use the directional and speed controller
to control up to four DC motors or two DC motors.
This motor driver is ideal for robotics and mechatronics projects and is ideal for driving motors such as microcontrollers, switches and relays. Ideal for driving DC and stepper motors. B. Ideal for micromouses, line trace robots, robot arms, etc.
The
HBridge is a circuit that drives a Can drive current with either polarity and is controlled by pulse width modulation (PWM).
Pulse width modulation is a means of controlling the duration of an electronic pulse. In the case of a motor, think of a brush as a water wheel, a drop of water flowing through an electron. Tension is the water that flows on the wheel at a constant speed, and the more water that flows, the higher the tension. The motor is compatible with certain voltages and can be damaged if the voltage is applied too hard or if it plummets and slows down the motor. So PWM. Think of the analogy of a water wheel, where the water hits it with momentum, but there is a constant flow. The longer the impulse, the faster the wheel spins, and the shorter the impulse, the slower the turbine spins. Motors last much longer and are more reliable when controlled via PWM.
