These two modules will not generate 12VDC, so you'll need to supply it externally for the motors. **Q: Can I plug in sensors into the pins on top and run them at the same time as the motors?** A: The pins on top are connected to different signals. IN2 = Analog 2, In3 = Analog 3, Out6 = Digital 6, Out5 = Digital 5, TWI in and TWI out are connected to the i2c bus (SCL, SDA, 5V and GND). TWI is a bus, so multiple devices can share the same pins. All these pins can be used while you drive the motors. **Q: How does this compare with the adafruit v2.3 motor shield?** A: Sorry but my experiences are limited to the Arduino line of producers. ## Frequently Bought Together - Arduino Motor Shield REV3 [A000079] - Arduino Uno REV3 [A000066] - Arduino UNO R4 WiFi [ABX00087] - Renesas RA4M1 / ESP32-S3 - Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, USB-C, CAN, DAC, OP AMP, Qwiic Connector, 12x8 LED Matrix --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.ke/products/12202076-motor-shield-rev3-a000079-motor-control-4-dc-motors-2](https://www.desertcart.co.ke/products/12202076-motor-shield-rev3-a000079-motor-control-4-dc-motors-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kenya* *Store origin: KE* *Last updated: 2026-10-30*
