I guess the back EMF goes onto the 5V supply which rises. Any TTL logic on
this supply will be damaged then.
What you can do is to seperate the logic supply with the supply for the
motors. If the same supply must be used then put a diode in the + line,
cathode towards the motor driver. This keeps the back EMF energy from
flowing back into the 5V supply. Be carefull that this voltage behind the
diode can/will rise as high as the back EMF, 10V. Of course place some
buffer capacitor on the 5V, after the diode.
Use an active voltage clamp to be sure 5V doesn't rise when back EMF is
generated.
