A motor controller HAT for Raspberry Pi designed to make robot building easy. Featuring the reliable L293D dual H-bridge driver, it can control up to 4 DC motors or 2 stepper motors with built-in connections for IR line sensors and ultrasonic distance sensors. The onboard LED arrow indicators show motor direction for easy debugging, while the GPIO stacking header passes through all pins for additional add-ons. Key Features L293D Dual H-Bridge – Control 4× DC motors or 2× stepper motors 600mA Per Channel – 1A peak current capacity Wide Voltage Range – 6V–24V motor supply input LED Direction Indicators – Visual feedback for motor direction IR Sensor Connectors – 2× ports with 3.3V level protection Ultrasonic Connector – 1× port with 3.3V level protection GPIO Stacking Header – Pass-through for additional HATs Python Library – Easy programming with included library Specifications Motor Driver: L293D dual H-bridge Motor Channels: 4× DC or 2× stepper Current: 600mA continuous, 1A peak per channel Motor Supply: 6V–24V DC Sensor Ports: 2× IR, 1× ultrasonic (3.3V protected) Ideal For Raspberry Pi robots Line-following robots Obstacle-avoiding robots Motorised Pi projects Package Contents 1× Motorshield for Raspberry Pi Resources Python Library & Documentation (GitHub)
