L298N Motor Driver Module

Interfacing L298N Motor Driver with Arduino Uno

In this tutorial we will learn how to interface L298N motror driver with Arduino Uno. You might be thinking why we need L298N for controlling a motor. The answer is very simple, Arduino board or a microcontroller IO pins don't have enough current/voltage driving capability to drive a motor. For driving the motor in both directions (clockwise and anti-clockwise) we need to use an H-Bridge. Please read our article H-Bridge - DC Motor Driving for more...

Controlling DC Motors using IR Remote

Controlling DC Motors using Arduino and IR Remote

In this project we will learn how to decode IR remote signals with Arduino and to control DC motors depending on the button pressed. For demonstrating the working we are using five buttons on the remote. When the next button on the remote is pressed, motors will rotate in clockwise direction. And if the previous button is pressed motors will rotate in anticlockwise direction. We can also control these two motors individually using left, right arrow buttons and stop button...

Interfacing DC Motor with 8051 using L293D – AT89C51

In some of the electronics projects you may want to control a DC Motor with 8051 microcontroller. The maximum current that can be sourced or sunk from a 8051 microcontroller is 15 mA at 5v. But a DC Motor need currents very much more than that and it need voltages 6v, 12v, 24v etc, depending upon the type of motor used. Another problem is that the back emf produced by the motor may affect the proper functioning of the microcontroller. Due to these reasons we...

Interfacing DC Motor with PIC Microcontroller using L293D

This tutorial explains " How to interface DC Motor with PIC Microcontroller ? ".

DC Motor and L293D

We can't drive a DC Motor (depends) directly with a Microcontroller, as DC Motors requires high current and high voltage than a Microcontroller can handle. Microcontrollers usually operates at +5 or +3.3V supply and it I/O pin can provide only up to 25mA current. Commonly used DC Motors requires 12V supply and 300mA current, moreover interfacing DC Motors directly with Microcontrollers may affect...

L293D – Quadruple Half H DC Motor Driver

L293D L293 and L293D are quadruple half H Bridge driver having high current capability. It can also be seen as a dual H Bridge driver for driving Motors. L293D can provide currents up to 600mA and L293 can provide currents up to 1A at voltages ranging from 4.5 to 36. Both L293 and L293D are designed to drive inductive loads such as solenoids, relays, dc motors, bipolar stepper motors and other high current or voltage applications.

Features

Wide range of supply voltage from 4.5 to 36v Separate Input...

DC Motor Driving using H Bridge

H Bridge is a simple electronic circuit which enables us to apply voltage to load in either direction. It is commonly used in robotics application to control DC Motors. By using H Bridge we can run DC Motor in clockwise or anticlockwise directions.  This circuit is also used to produce alternating waveforms in inverters.

Basic H Bridge

Basic H Bridge Circuit When switches S1 and S4 are switched on, motor runs in clockwise direction. Basic H Bridge Working When S2 and S3 are switched on,  motor runs...
