The L298N motor driver is a dual H-bridge IC that lets you control the speed and direction of two DC motors or one stepper motor, handling up to 2 A per channel with supply voltages from 5 V to 35 V. It’s widely used in robotics, DIY automation, and Arduino projects because of its low cost and ease of use.
Type: Dual full H-bridge driver (BJT-based)
Voltage Range: 5 V–35 V motor supply (Vs)
Current Capacity: Up to 2 A per channel (continuous ~1 A without heatsink)
Logic Voltage: 5 V (TTL compatible)
Outputs: 2 DC motors or 1 stepper motor
Control: Direction via IN1–IN4 pins, speed via PWM on ENA/ENB pins
Onboard Regulator: 5 V output available if Vs < 12 V and jumper is set
