Description

Key Features:

✔ Dual H-Bridge Design – Independently control 2 DC motors (or 1 stepper motor) in forward, reverse, or PWM speed modes.
✔ High Current Capacity – 2A continuous per channel (3A peak) – ideal for large motors (12V–24V).
✔ Arduino Shield Form Factor – Stacks directly onto Uno, Mega, and other 5V/3.3V boards (no wiring needed).
✔ Wide Voltage Range (5V–35V) – Supports 6V, 12V, and 24V motor power.
✔ Built-in Protection – Heat sink + diode protection against back-EMF.
✔ Easy Control – Uses Arduino PWM pins for speed regulation.
