Here is a design for a full-featured motor shield that will be able to power many simple to medium-complexity projects.

 

  • 2 connections for 5V 'hobby' servos connected to the Arduino's high-resolution dedicated timer - no jitter!
  • 4 H-Bridges: L293D chipset provides 0.6A per bridge (1.2A peak) with thermal shutdown protection, internal kickback protection diodes. Can run motors on 4.5VDC to 36VDC.
  • Up to 4 bi-directional DC motors with individual 8-bit speed selection (so, about 0.5% resolution)
  • Up to 2 stepper motors (unipolar or bipolar) with single coil, double coil or interleaved stepping.
  • Pull down resistors keep motors disabled during power-up
  • Big terminal block connectors to easily hook up wires (10-22AWG) and power
  • Arduino reset button brought up top
  • 2-pin terminal block and jumper to connect external power, for seperate logic/motor supplies
  • Tested compatible with Arduino Mega, Diecimila & Duemilanove
  • Download the easy-to-use Arduino software library, check out the examples and you're ready to go!
Kit comes with all parts necessary, unassembled. Instructions, examples, and other documentation is available on the website
Motors and Arduino are not included.

Adafruit Motor shield for Arduino and a model train!
Aspro648 writes - A more functional train microcontroller… Power is coming from a 12V wall transformer which powers both the Arduino (at 5V), and the shield(at 12V). The shield provides pulse-width modulated DC to the rails. The microcontroller is programmed to control direction, maximum speed, and rate of change. I am using a momentary toggle switch read more...
Ghost made with Adafruit motorshield
From Adafruit forum member Konstantin - It has the latest arduino and Ladyada motorshield. There are three pair of LED – green and two red. Red ones are closer to each other and lower – when you walk close, his eyes follow you. There are two stepper motors supposed to lift his arms, but they do read more...
Toys for Bots – Arduino controlled etch-a-sketch
yergacheffe writes - I had recently purchased a pair of 5V stepper motors and a motor driver shield from the fine folks at adafruit industries which seemed perfect for spinning the knobs. The question was how to connect the steppers to the knobs. As it happens I had also just bought a gear set from American read more...

Lenp17 writes - Here’s the finished, working ToyBot. ToyBot is made from a cheap RC toy car. I took out the radio electronics and put in an Arduino microcontroller and an Adafruit Motor Shield motor controller and some sensors. ToyBot drives around the floor looking for light (or for shade, if it’s too hot). When it read more...
