Product Summary

The L295N is a monolithic integrated circuit in a 15 -lead Multiwatt package; It incorporates all the functions for direct interfacing between digital circuitry and inductive loads. The L295N is designed to accept standard microprocessor logic levels at the inputs and can drive 2 solenoids. The output current is completely controlled by means of a switch-ing technique allowing very efficient operation. Furthermore, it includes an enable input and dual supplies (for interfacing with peripherals running at a higher voltage than the logic). The L295N is particularly suitable for applications such as hammer driving in matrix printers, step motor driving and electromagnet controllers.
