L298 Compact Motor Driver

L298 Compact Motor Driver

The L298 motor driver IC is a very popular, but hard to use chip. Our Compact Motor Driver Kit tames this beast, and adds useful functionality!

The L298 is a popular motor driver IC that is usable from 6 to 50V, at up to 4A total output current. By itself, the IC is somewhat diffcult to wire and use, but the Compact L298 Motor Driver makes it much more convenient to use.

Featuring dual H-bridges, our CMD kit adds:

  • Four motor direction indicator LEDs
  • An onboard user-accessable 5V low-dropout regulator
  • Schottky EMF-protection diodes
  • Screw-terminals for power and motor connections
  • Socket pin connectors for easy logic interfacing
  • A small 40mm (1.53") square footprint
