2 TinkerKit connectors for two Analog Inputs (in white), connected to A2 and A3.

Screw terminal to connect the motors and their power supply.

The additional sockets on the shield are described as follow: If you don't need the Brake and the Current Sensing and you also need more pins for your application you can disable this features by cutting the respective jumpers on the back side of the shield. The shield's pins, divided by channel are shown in the table below: Function You can use each channel separately to drive two DC motors or combine them to drive one bipolar stepper motor. In total there are 8 pins in use on this shield. This shield has two separate channels, called A and B, that each use 4 of the Arduino pins to drive or sense the motor. The shield can supply 2 amperes per channel, for a total of 4 amperes maximum.

GND Ground on the screw terminal block.

By cutting the "Vin Connect" jumper you make this a dedicated power line for the motor. An external power supply connected to this pin also provide power to the Arduino board on which is mounted.

Vin on the screw terminal block, is the input voltage to the motor connected to the shield.

The absolute limit for the Vin at the screw terminals is 18V. This is possible by cutting the "Vin Connect" jumper placed on the back side of the shield.

If your motor require more than 9V we recommend that you separate the power lines of the shield and the Arduino board on which the shield is mounted. To avoid possible damage to the Arduino board on which the shield is mounted, we reccomend using an external power supply that provides a voltage between 7 and 12V. The adapter can be connected by plugging a 2.1mm center-positive plug into the Arduino's board power jack on which the motor shield is mounted or by connecting the wires that lead the power supply to the Vin and GND screw terminals, taking care to respect the polarities. The required motor current often exceeds the maximum USB current rating.Įxternal (non-USB) power can come either from an AC-to-DC adapter (wall-wart) or battery. Because the L298 IC mounted on the shield has two separate power connections, one for the logic and one for the motor supply driver. The Arduino Motor Shield must be powered only by an external power supply. The Arduino Motor Shield is open-source hardware! You can build your own board using the following files:ĮAGLE FILES IN.
