L298N Dual Motor Driver Pinout
- DC motor 1 “+” or stepper motor A+
- DC motor 1 “-” or stepper motor A-
- 12V jumper – remove this if using a supply voltage greater than 12V DC. This enables power to the onboard 5V regulator
- Connect your motor supply voltage here, maximum of 35V DC. Remove 12V jumper if >12V DC
- GND
- 5V output if 12V jumper in place, ideal for powering your Arduino (etc)
- DC motor 1 enable jumper. Leave this in place when using a stepper motor. Connect to PWM output for DC motor speed control.
- IN1
- IN2
- IN3
- IN4
- DC motor 2 enable jumper. Leave this in place when using a stepper motor. Connect to PWM output for DC motor speed control.
- DC motor 2 “+” or stepper motor B+
- DC motor 2 “-” or stepper motor B-
