We fried our board after putting more than the 30 volts and ignoring "Important note: remove the +12V jumper shown if you are using powers higher than +12V." Be careful out there.

Hi,

You can still use the L298N with your motor. You'll need a power supply with 7V-35V output to power the board though.

I have a DC motor with an operating voltage of only 4-6V lying on my desk, but I guess the L298N Motor Controller Board wouldn't be of much help to me, what should I use instead to master the amperage?

And he really bought me lunch because I located it for him smile So let me rephrase that: Thanks for lunch!

I have Nano instead of UNO, I have the same bridge and wiring as shown on your page. However, the motors are not working. Do I need to connect any resistance between Hbridge terminal to Motor??

Regards
Dev
