Arduino motor shield
The Arduino motor shield is based on the L298 (datasheet), which is a dual full-bridge driver designed to drive inductive loads such as relays, solenoids, DC and stepping motors. It lets the user drive two DC motors with their Arduino board, controlling the speed and direction of each one independently. Readers can also measure the current absorption of each motor.
