DC Quad Motor Driver Shield Arduino

The DC Quad Motor Driver Shield Arduino is a motor driver based on the Quad driver chip, capable of driving 4 motor channel(s) at up to ~1A each. Pair it with DC motors, stepper motors, or other actuators controlled via PWM from an Arduino or ESP32.

Motor driver comparison

Driver	Channels	Max current	Voltage	Best for
L293D	2 (or 4 half)	600mA	4.5–36V	Small motors, learning
DRV8833	2	1.2A	2.7–10.8V	Small robots, low voltage
TB6612FNG	2	1.2A (3.2A peak)	2.5–13.5V	General robotics
L298N	2	2A	5–46V	Larger motors, high voltage
DRV8874	1	6A	4.5–37V	Single high-power motor
VNH5019	1 (or 2 on shield)	12A (30A peak)	5.5–24V	Heavy-duty motors
