Features:
The Motor Shield is based on the L298, a dual full-bridge driver designed to drive inductive loads such as relays, solenoids, DC, and stepping motors. It lets you drive two DC motors with your board, controlling the speed and direction of each one independently. You can also measure the motor current absorption of each motor, among other features.
Compatible with the Arduino line of products. Trademark registrations throughout the world for ARDUINO or Arduino® are owned by: Arduino AG and Arduino SA.
