L293D V1 Motor Driver Shield for Arduino — 4 DC / 2 Stepper Motors
The L293D motor driver shield stacks directly onto Arduino Uno or Mega and enables control of up to 4 DC motors or 2 stepper motors (or a combination). Uses two L293D H-bridge driver ICs with built-in flyback diodes for motor protection. Controlled via I2C using the Adafruit Motor Shield library, freeing up Arduino digital pins.
