HW-130 Motor Control Shield (often referred to as the L293D V1 Motor Shield) is a versatile expansion board for the Arduino Uno and Mega. It acts as a bridge, allowing the low-power signals from your Arduino to control high-power motors without damaging the microcontroller. Technical Specifications The core of this shield consists of two L293D dual-channel H-bridge drivers 74HC595 shift register to manage I/O pins efficiently. Motor Capacity 4 DC motors with individual 8-bit speed selection. 2 stepper motors (unipolar or bipolar). 2 "hobby" servos (5V) connected to dedicated high-resolution timers. Power Ratings : Supports motors between 4.5V and 25V : Provides 600mA per channel (1.2A peak) with thermal shutdown protection. Safety Features
