DC Motor Control with an H-Bridge and Arduino (Lesson #17)

Learn to use an L293D H-bridge with an Arduino for direction and speed control of a DC motor. This is very useful for a variety of robotics projects that you can find on our site and YouTube channel. See our complete playlist of Arduino tutorials here:    • How to Use an Arduino   and the Science Buddies website for cool science projects you can do with an Arduino: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/search...
