Hello,
For my project i am using a L298N motor driver to command 2 DC Motors (200 mA, 6-9V).
For beginning, let me post the part of the schematic where the problem occurs:
I made a test board , but i cannot make the motors to start. I set IN1 to 5 volts, IN2 to 0 volts, and EN A to 5 volts (always enable). This must rotate the motor in one way. I used a multimeter to measure the voltage from OUT1 to OUT2, and all looks fine: 6-9 volts, depending on what voltage i select. But when i connect the 2 outputs to a motor, nothing happends.
I have connected two wires to the motor, directly from DC Source, and it does starts, so the problem must be from the driver.
The only thing that does not follows the L298N's data sheet is C7 capacitor. I used a 47uF instead of 470uF, but i do not think this is the problem.
Here is the datasheet of the motor driver:

I am waiting for any advises .
