Linear Actuator Arduino Control using L298N Motor Control Board and RC Transmitter/Receiver
Join Science Fun on Facebook @ / sciencefun4u
In this tutorial I will show you how to use the L298N motor control board and write simple Arduino code to control a linear actuator using an RC controller. The L298N is a compact and inexpensive H bridge motor control board that easily interfaces with microcontrollers such as the Arduino or Raspberry Pi. Though it costs a little more than the L9110, it is capable of much higher power and can also provide 5V for your Arduino. It is also capable of dc motor speed control.
In a previous video • Linear Actuator Arduin... I used an L298N and a 3-button switch to control an industrial linear actuator. In this video, I use an L298N with an RC transmitter to extend, retract, and stop a linear actuator. I also describe the Arduino code used to interface with the L298N. In a future video, I will use and RC transmitter and receiver to control the speed and direction of the linear actuator.
