Motor Driver Shield L293D - Shield untuk menggerakkan motor karena output dari microcontroller seperti Arduino tidak cukup kuat untuk menggerakkan DC motor dengan maksimal. L293D is a monolithic integrated, high voltage, high current, 4-channel driver. Basically this means using this chip you can use DC motors and power supplies of up to 36 Volts, that's some pretty big motors and the chip can supply a maximum current of 600mA per channel. The L293D chip is also what's known as a type of H-Bridge. The H-Bridge is typically an electrical circuit that enables a voltage to be applied across a load in either direction to an output, e.g., motor.
Spesifikasi: - Tegangan kerja: 4.5V - 36V DC. - Arus: 1A. - 2 interface for 5V Servo connected to the high-resolution dedicated timer - no jitter. - Dapat menggerakkan 4 motor DC atau 2 motor stepper atau 2 Servo. - Dapat menggerakan 4 motor DC dua arah (bi-directional) dengan pengaturan kecepatan 8-bit. - Dapat menggerakan 2 motor stepper (unipolar atau bipolar) dengan single coil, double coil atau interleaved stepping. - 4 H-Bridges: per bridge provides 0.6A (1.2A peak current) with thermal protection. - Pull down resistors keep motors disabled during power-up. - Built-In Reset Button. - 2 external terminal power interface, for separate logic/motor supplies. - Fully compatible for Mega, Diecimila & Duemilanove. - Dimensi (PxLxT): 69.5 x 53.4 x 13 mm.
