L298 Based Motor Driver

The L298 is a popular motor driver IC that is usable from 6 to 50V, at up to 4A total output current. By itself, the IC is somewhat difficult to wire and use, but the Compact L298 Motor Driver makes it much more convenient to use. 

L298 Features

OPERATING SUPPLY VOLTAGE UP TO 46 V

TOTAL DC CURRENT UP TO 4 A

LOW SATURATION VOLTAGE

OVERTEMPERATURE PROTECTION LOGICAL "0" INPUT VOLTAGE UP TO 1.5 V(HIGH NOISE IMMUNITY) Board Special Features Four motor direction indicator LEDs An onboard user-accessable 5V low-dropout regulator Schottky EMF-protection diodes Socket pin connectors for easy logic interfacing Enable pins are user accessible. Can be operated in parallel to provide a total current capacity of 4 AMPS

How to work with Java

Hi Friends,
Yesterday I was struggling with programming in Java and searched a lot of sites to know about it. Each and every site confused me and so now that I have written for you in easy steps so that you can work with java easily.

Step 1: write the Java code using Notepad.

The java program for eg: hello.java should be typed in notepad first . Now save it in the format(.java) in the location>> C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_07\bin.
Remember: You need to save it under jdk\bin . The location of the same can be found where you have installed java. I have installed java in c drive under program files.

step 2: working with command prompt

Now that you have written the java code and you need to run to get the output.
So, go to start >> Run >> type cmd.
Now command prompt opens up.
type cd..
type cd..
Now you have changed the directory to c drive
c:\>
Now you must go to the location C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_07\bin.
So, from c:\> what commands should I type to move to bin directory?

Step 3: Moving to Bin Directory

c:\> cd [space] program files

Now it has moved to
c:\program files\>
Similarly you must type
c:\program files\> cd[space] java
and so on till bin reaches.
c:\program files\Java\jdk1.6.0_07\bin>


Step 4 Debugging the program.

So, once the bin is reached type
c:\program files\Java\jdk1.6.0_07\bin> javac [space] hello.java
This will check whether if there are some errors in it. If there are no errors then it will come back to the same bin location
c:\program files\Java\jdk1.6.0_07\bin>

step5: Running the Program

Now type the following command to run the program
c:\program files\Java\jdk1.6.0_07\bin> java[space] classname
whats classname?
In the java program type the classname which contains the code for output.

Now you can get the output!! cool !!
