When using L293D to drive DC motor, there are usually two kinds of connection.
Following connection uses one channel, and it can control motor speed through PWM, but the motor can
only rotate in one direction.
Following connection uses two channels: one channel outputs PWM wave, and another channel connects
GND, so you can control the speed of motor. When these two channel signals are exchanged, the current
direction of the motor can be reversed, and the motor will rotate in reverse direction. This can not only
control the speed of motor, but also can control the steering of motor.
In actual use, motor is usually connected to the channel 1 and 2, output different level to in1 and in2 to
control the rotation direction of the motor, and output PWM wave to Enable1 port to control the motor
rotation speed. Or, get motor connected to the channel 3 and 4, output different level to in3 and in4 to
control the motor's rotation direction, and output PWM wave to Enable2 pin to control the motor rotation
speed.
