The animated image of L-298 IC is shown in the figure given below.

L 298 IC has 15 pins in total, each having different functions associated with them.

You can download L298 Datasheet by clicking below button: The further detail about L-298 will be given later in this tutorial. Its has a lot applications including robotics, automated door lock systems, CNC machines etc. Its features include low saturation voltage, over temperature protection etc. It has two specific pins for enabling or disabling the particular device attached at its output. It is mostly used in motor driver’s designing. Its receives TTL logic signals and operates different loads like motors, solenoid, relays etc. L298 is a high current and high voltage IC. You should also have a look at L298D Motor Driver Library for Proteus. It has a lot of real life applications e.g robotics, doors lock systems, CNC machines etc.

By changing the voltage signal’s polarity at its input we can rotate the motor in either clockwise or counter clockwise direction. PWM pins are used to control the speed of the motor. L 298 has two Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) pins. While it can control a single stepper motor as well. L-298 motor driver (H-Bridge) is able to control two different DC motors simultaneously. They receives input from micro controllers and operate the load attached to their output terminals correspondingly. These motor controllers can be controlled by any micro controller e.g Arduino, PIC, Raspberry Pi etc. L 298 IC is most commonly used to make motor drivers or motor controllers. L-298 has two enable input to control any device by enabling or disabling it. You should also have a look at Introduction to L23D. It receives basic TTL (Transistor Transistor Logic) logic levels and is able to operate the different loads such as DC motors, stepper motors, relays etc. L 298 is a dual full bridge driver that has a capability to bear high voltage as well as high current. Today I am going to elaborate you about Introduction to L298. L-298 is an Integrated Circuit (IC) available in two type of packages now a days which will be given later. Hello everyone! I hope you all will be absolutely fine and having fun.
