Hi all, I need a small help regarding L293D. I am making a small project using L293D. Bo motor which hardly consumes 60ma at 5v. i am powering my L293D using a step up circuit 3.7V to 5V from 3.7v li-ion battery. output current from step up circuit is 200ma which is not a issue. my problem is the motor voltage pin no 8 shows me 5.12v. when i drive my motor the voltage accross shows me only 3.00v... due to which the motor drives very slow. can anybody please help why this happen....
Prio one would be to verify the voltage input to the driver - does your step-up manage to supply 5V when the motor is powered? Don't just assume 200mA is enough - measure the voltage when loaded.
the voltage shows across pin 8 is 5.12v
