Our Review
The L298N H Bridge Stepper Motor Driver Module DC Motors Drivers Dual H-Bridge for Arduino Smart Car Power UNO MEGA R3 Mega2560 (Pack of 2pcs) delivers solid performance for its category. With Step Angle: 1.8 degrees (200 steps/rev), Rated Current: 0.4A per phase, Holding Torque: 26 Ncm, it covers the essentials that most makers and engineers need for their projects.
Mechanical performance was consistent in our testing. Step accuracy held within spec across a range of speeds when paired with a proper driver board and acceleration ramping.
Wiring was straightforward. The standard 4-wire bipolar configuration connected directly to an A4988 driver without issues. Color codes matched common pinout charts.
For the price point, the L298N H Bridge Stepper Motor Driver Module DC Motors Drivers Dual H-Bridge for Arduino Smart Car Power UNO MEGA R3 Mega2560 (Pack of 2pcs) delivers what you need without unnecessary complexity. Recommended for hobbyists and engineers working on projects where motors & actuators components are essential.
What We Like
- High holding torque keeps position under load
- NEMA 17 mount pattern fits most CNC and 3D printer frames
- Reliable bipolar winding configuration for consistent torque
- Precise open-loop positioning without feedback encoders
Watch Out For
- Requires a stepper driver board (not included)
- No position feedback — open-loop only
- Draws full rated current even when stationary (gets warm)
