Product description
The module has a Vcc input terminal and a 5V terminal which can either be an input or an output. The module can be powered either by inputting 7 to 35V on the Vcc terminal or by inputting 5V on the 5V terminal.
There is a power button on the module that enables the Vcc input. When Vcc is enabled a red LED will light. If instead, you use the 5V power input, the switch is bypassed and the board will always be powered.
The Vcc input feeds a built-in 5V regulator which is used by the L298N chip. If the input voltage is in the range of 7 – 12VDC, there will be 5V available at the 5V terminal that can be used to power an for arduino or other 5V logic. The built-in 5V regulator can handle up to 400mA maximum. If Vcc is higher than 12VDC, it is not recommended to use the built-in 5V to power other devices to avoid possible overheating of the 5V regulator.
Using the Vcc input with a voltage between 7-12V gives the most flexibility when using this module and is the recommended mode to use.
