The Motor Driver Module project demonstrates how to control a DC motor using an Arduino Mega and a motor driver module (such as L298N). This setup allows you to control the speed and direction of the motor using PWM signals and digital outputs from the Arduino.
- Arduino Mega
- Motor Driver Module (e.g., L298N)
- DC Motor
- Power Supply (for the motor and motor driver)
- Jumper Wires
- Connect the Motor Driver Module to Arduino Mega:
- Motor Pins (Output 1 and Output 2): Connect to the respective input pins of the motor driver module.
- Enable Pin (PWM): Connect to the enable pin of the motor driver module for speed control.
- Power Supply: Connect appropriate power supply (motor voltage) to the motor driver module.
- GND: Connect GND of the motor driver module to GND of Arduino Mega.
-
Circuit Setup:
- Connect the motor driver module and DC motor to the Arduino Mega as described in the circuit setup section.
-
Code Upload:
- Open the Arduino IDE and create a new sketch.
- Copy and paste the provided Arduino code into the sketch.
- Upload the code to the Arduino Mega.
-
Testing:
- Open the Serial Monitor in the Arduino IDE (set to 9600 baud).
- Observe the Serial Monitor for motor operation feedback:
- Motor forward: Motor rotates in one direction (clockwise).
- Motor backward: Motor rotates in the opposite direction (counter-clockwise).
- Motor stopped: Motor halts its rotation.
- Robotics Projects: Control motors for movement and navigation.
- Automation Systems: Drive mechanical components in automated setups.
- DIY Electronics: Build custom motor-driven projects and devices.
- Ensure the motor driver module is rated appropriately for your motor's voltage and current requirements.
- Adjust the PWM value (
speedvariable) to control the motor speed. - Customize the motor control functions (
motorControlfunction) for specific applications or additional functionalities.
