Well, its been about 3 weeks since my last post on this thread and by now I should have got a working L297/8 circuit. However, the reality of live, with a job and a family, has meant no electronics fun for 3 weeks and zero progress.
However, I have managed to buy the ICs and now I have a little time i've met my first problem >>> the L298 doesn't fit onto a breadboard. Looking on the data sheet, it is described as a 15 lead Multiwatt package.
Is there an easy way to fit this IC to the b/b?? Or do I need to go some other way??
Thanks as always / Jonathan
