Overview
The L298P013TR is an integrated monolithic circuit produced by STMicroelectronics, designed as a high-voltage, high-current dual full-bridge driver. It is available in a 20-pin PowerSO-20 package. This device is capable of accepting standard TTL logic levels and driving inductive loads such as relays, solenoids, DC motors, and stepper motors. The L298P013TR features two enable inputs that allow the device to be enabled or disabled independently of the input signals, and it includes provisions for connecting external sensing resistors to monitor the current through the load.
