The L296P is an integrated circuit (IC) manufactured by STMicroelectronics. It is a high-voltage, high-current dual full-bridge driver designed to accept standard TTL logic level inputs and drive inductive loads such as relays, solenoids, DC and bipolar stepping motors. It is available in a 15-pin Zip package, and is designed for use in applications such as motor control, robotics, and computer peripheral interface circuits. Description: The L296P is a dual full-bridge driver for inductive loads. It can be used to drive solenoid, DC and stepper motors, and is designed to accept standard 5V TTL logic level inputs for control. It is capable of up to 5A peak output current and can operate from a 10V to 40V power supply. It is designed to provide short-circuit protection, thermal protection, and is capable of thermal shutdown protection. The IC is packaged in the 15-pin ZIP-15 package. Features: High-voltage, high-current dual full-bridge driver Operates from 10V to 40V power supply Accepts 5V TTL logic level inputs 5A peak output current Short-circuit and thermal protection Thermal shutdown protection Applications: Motor control Robotics Computer peripheral interface circuits(For reference only)
