⚡ Quick Start Guide & Important Tips

🔹 What It Does & What You Need
✅ This module does:

Drive 2 DC motors (forward/reverse/PWM)

Drive 1 4‑wire bipolar stepper motor
❌ This module does NOT: Drive high‑power motors (>10V or >2A), waterproof
🔧 You will need: 2-10V power supply, Arduino, motors, jumper wires
📦 Package includes: Motor driver module × (as per SKU)

🔹 Wiring (DC Motor Mode)

💡 Motor A logic: INA=HIGH, INB=LOW → forward; INA=LOW, INB=HIGH → reverse; INA=INB → stop. Apply PWM to INA or INB for speed control.

⚠️ Important:

Power polarity: Reversing VCC/GND will instantly destroy the module. Double-check!

Voltage: 2V-10V only. Exceeding 10V may damage chip.

Current: Continuous ≤1.5A per channel, peak ≤2.5A (<1s). Overload triggers thermal protection.

Thermal protection: Module stops when hot, recovers when cool – normal.

Output short: Short circuit or motor stall may cause heating. At near 10V and >2.5A, chip may burn. Keep within limits.

Common ground: Must connect motor GND to MCU GND.

Input floating: Built-in pull-down prevents false triggering.

🔹 Common Questions

❓ Motor not running or weak?

1.Check power (2-10V, sufficient current).

2.Verify wiring and common ground.

3.Check control signals (1.8V-7V).

4.If module hot, wait for cool-down.

❓ Module getting hot?

1.Overload (>1.5A continuous)

2.Motor stall or short circuit

3.PWM frequency too high (use 1-10kHz)

4.Thermal protection will activate – safe.

❓ Can it drive a stepper motor?
Yes, 4‑wire bipolar stepper. Connect A+/A- to OUTA/OUTB, B+/B- to OUTC/OUTD. Use Stepper library.

❓ Difference from traditional L298N?
This module is for 2-10V, 1.5A – smaller, more efficient. Traditional L298N supports up to 35V but larger and hotter.
