Adafruit Motor Shield V2

Control motors connected to add-on shields on Arduino^®hardware

Adafruit^®Motor Shield V2 is an add-on shield that you can plug into Arduino Uno, Mega, or Due hardware to control motors. The Adafruit Motor Shield v2 can drive up to 4 bi-directional DC motors , 2 stepper motors, or 2 servo motors. The Adafruit Motor Shield comes with a TB6612 MOSFET driver and 4 H-Bridges capable of delivering 1.2A per channel with a 3A peak capability and also has internal kick-back protection diodes. You can also stack multiple motor shields to control additional motors, if you are using Arduino Uno or Due boards.
