Circuit Documentation
Summary
This circuit is designed to control a dual motor system with PWM control, using an L298N 2A Dual Motor Driver Module. It is powered by a 4 x AAA battery mount and includes two optical encoder sensor modules for feedback. The ESP32-WROOM-32UE microcontroller is used to interface with the motor driver and the encoders, providing control signals and processing the encoder outputs. The motors are hobbyist yellow gear motors, and their speed and direction are controlled by the L298N module, which receives its commands from the ESP32.
