This Arduino Motor Shield is designed based on L298P Power Motor Driver IC, a full- bridge motor driver. It can drive two seperate 2A DC motors or 1 2A step motor. Motor speed and directions can be controlled separately. Also there are 6 connectors connected to Arduino analog pins for fast prototyping.

An onboard buzzer can be activated when required for audible warning purposes. This Motor shield can be powered directly from Arduino or from external power source. It is strongly recommended to use external power supply to power the motor shield.
