Description

Description:

The L293D IC Dual H-Bridge Motor Driver is a monolithic integrated high voltage, high current four channel driver designed to accept standard DTL or TTL logic levels and drive inductive loads (such as relays solenoids, DC and stepping motors) and switching power transistors.  To simplify use as two bridges each pair of channels is equipped with an enable input. A separate supply input is provided for the logic, allowing operation at a lower voltage and internal clamp diodes are included. This L293D motor driver is suitable for use in switching applications at frequencies up to 5 kHz. The L293D is assembled in a 16 lead plastic package that has 4 center pins connected together and used for heatsinking.

Make the connection as shown above.

Make sure that the Jumpers are preset on the Enable 1-2 and Enable 3-4 pins of module, so that motor will be enabled and work at maximum speed.

2.1. Working Mechanism

Rotation of motor depends on Enable Pins. When Enable 1/2 is HIGH , motor connected to left part of IC will rotate according to following manner:

Input 1 Input 2 Result
0 0 Stop
0 1 Anti Clockwise
1 0 Clockwise
1 1 Stop

3. Programming:
