L293D Motor Shield for Arduino – Control Up to 4 Motors with One Board for Robotics and Automation

Powerful Driver with 4 H-Bridges for DC, Stepper and Servo Motors – Perfect for Your Arduino Projects

This motor driver shield, based on the classic L293D chip, is your ideal choice for projects that require control of multiple motors. It can simultaneously control up to 4 bidirectional DC motors, 2 stepper motors (unipolar or bipolar), or 2 servo motors, making it extremely versatile for robotics, RC models, and automation. Each of the four H-bridges can supply up to 600mA continuous current (1.2A peak) and operates with a wide motor voltage range – from 4.5V to 36V. The shield includes convenient features such as separate terminals for logic and motor power supplies, protecting your Arduino board, as well as a manual reset button. It easily mounts on Arduino UNO and Mega2560. Whether you're building a four-wheeled robot, a coordinate system, or an automated manipulator, this shield offers reliability and power in one compact package.
