The L293 and L293D are high-current quadruple half-H drivers. These 
devices are intended to power a variety of inductive loads, including 
relays, solenoids, DC and bipolar stepping motors, and other 
high-current and high-voltage loads. All inputs are TTL compatible and 
can withstand voltages of up to 7 V. Each output is an entire totem-pole 
drive circuit, complete with a Darlington transistor sink and a 
pseudo-Darlington source. Drivers are enabled in pairs, with 1,2EN 
enabling drivers 1 and 2 and 3,4EN enabling drivers 3 and 4.

I have learned L293DNE from this article:

If you get more ideas, please tell me.

IC from the last century.
Using bipolar darlington as drivers, the IC typically loses 1,4V at the 
highside and 1.2V at the lowside.
If you e.g. want to drive a 12V-Motor, a 12V-Power-supply will result in 
only 9.4V at the motor.

Modern ICs have lower losses and allow for higher currents at comparable 
prices. Additionally, many of them have open-loop detection or 
overcurrent-protection.
