Where to use L293D IC
The L293D is a popular 16-Pin Motor Driver IC. As the name suggests it is mainly used to drive motors. A single L293D IC is capable of running two DC motors at the same time; also the direction of these two motors can be controlled independently. So if you have motors which has operating voltage less than 36V and operating current less than 600mA, which are to be controlled by digital circuits like Op-Amp, 555 timers, digital gates or even Micron rollers like Arduino, PIC, ARM etc.. this IC will be the right choice for you.
How to use a L293D Motor Driver IC
Using this L293D motor driver IC is very simple. The IC works on the principle of Half H-Bridge, let us not go too deep into what H-Bridge means, but for now just know that H bridge is a set up which is used to run motors both in clock wise and anti clockwise direction. As said earlier this IC is capable of running two motors at the any direction at the same time, the circuit to achieve the same is shown below.
All the Ground pins should be grounded. There are two power pins for this IC, one is the Vss(Vcc1) which provides the voltage for the IC to work, this must be connected to +5V. The other is Vs(Vcc2) which provides voltage for the motors to run, based on the specification of your motor you can connect this pin to anywhere between 4.5V to 36V, here I have connected to +12V.
The Enable pins (Enable 1,2 and Enable 3,4) are used to Enable Input pins for Motor 1 and Motor 2 respectively. Since in most cases we will be using both the motors both the pins are held high by default by connecting to +5V supply. The input pins Input 1,2 are used to control the motor 1 and Input pins 3,4 are used to control the Motor 2. The input pins are connected to the any Digital circuit or microcontroller to control the speed and direction of the motor. You can toggle the input pins based on the following table to control your motor.
Input 1 = HIGH(5v) | Output 1 = HIGH | Motor 1 rotates in Clock wise Direction |
Input 2 = LOW(0v) | Output 2 = LOW | |
Input 3 = HIGH(5v) | Output 1 = HIGH | Motor 2 rotates in Clock wise Direction |
Input 4 = LOW(0v) | Output 2 = LOW |
Input 1 = LOW(0v) | Output 1 = LOW | Motor 1 rotates in Anti-Clock wise Direction |
Input 2 = HIGH(5v) | Output 2 = HIGH | |
Input 3 = LOW(0v) | Output 1 = LOW | Motor 2 rotates in Anti -Clock wise Direction |
Input 4 = HIGH(5v) | Output 2 = HIGH |
Input 1 = HIGH(5v) | Output 1 = HIGH | Motor 1 stays still |
Input 2 = HIGH(5v) | Output 2 = HIGH | |
Input 3 = HIGH(5v) | Output 1 = LOW | Motor 2 stays still |
Input 4 = HIGH(5v) | Output 2 = HIGH |

L293d Schematic
This motor driver shield is based on L293D motor driver chip which is designed to provide bidirectional drive currents of up to 1.2 A each bridge with thermal shutdown protection at voltages from 4.5 V to 36V. SKU: CQY35613762302,WUM40067624350 |
This motor driver expansion board is based on the L293D chip which is designed to drive up to 4 bidirectional DC motors with individual 8-bit speed selection. It can also drive 2 stepper motors (unipolar or bipolar), single coil or double coil, interleaved or micro-stepping. It contains 4 H-bridges which provide up to 0.6 A per bridge (1.2A peak) at voltages from 4.5 V to 36 V. This shield has pull down resistors to keep the motors disabled during power up. It also features a 2-pin terminal block to ensure separate logic and motor external power supplies. This expansion board is compatible with Arduinos Mega, Diecimila, and Duemilanove. This motor driver shield is capable of driving:
