L298N is a dual full-bridge driver from STMicroelectronics in a Multiwatt-15 package — for DC and stepper motors. This is the classic motor driver that launched a thousand Arduino robot kits: two full bridges in one package, simple to drive, nearly indestructible. Selection advice: the L298 is a bipolar Darlington design with significant saturation voltage drop — at higher currents it runs hot and wastes power, so modern MOSFET-based drivers (like the TB6612FNG) are more efficient for battery applications. Choose the L298N where simplicity and ruggedness matter more than efficiency, and plan heatsinking for the Multiwatt package. State quantity, packing and date-code requirements in your RFQ; we reconfirm the offered lot before quotation and reply within 24 hours.
L298N is a dual full-bridge DC motor driver from STMicroelectronics, orderable in the Multiwatt-15 package. The ordering code fixes the exact configuration you receive — package, grade and packing — so procurement starts with matching this code character-for-character against your BOM, not just the base series name.
When you request a quote, include the full ordering code, the target packing format (reel, tube, tray or cut tape), your quantity and any date-code or lot requirements. We reconfirm manufacturer, suffix, package, date code and traceability against the actual offered lot before any commercial quote is issued, and every RFQ gets a reply within 24 hours.

Browse existing catalog records — same series first, then the same category and manufacturer. These are not confirmed replacements; compatibility requires engineering review.
Every suffix in a manufacturer ordering code identifies one exact orderable device — package, temperature grade, packing format or a revision. L298N names the Multiwatt-15 configuration; a code that differs by even one suffix character may be a different device. Always quote the complete code exactly as it appears on your BOM.
The package (Multiwatt-15) is the physical form of the device itself. Packing describes how the devices are delivered — reel, tube, tray or cut tape. The same ordering code can ship in different packing formats depending on the lot, so confirm the required packing format when you submit your RFQ.
Traceability evidence — lot and date-code information, labels and photos — is confirmed per lot at quotation time, because it depends on the actual lot offered. Tell us which documents your receiving inspection requires when you submit the RFQ, and we will confirm what can be provided for the offered lot.
Add L298N to your RFQ with the complete ordering code, the manufacturer (STMicroelectronics), your quantity, the target packing format and any date-code requirements. We reply to every RFQ within 24 hours.
