About this kit
The Servo-16 Brick drives up to 16 servo motors for robot arms, walking robots and animatronics. Its PCA9685 controller makes smooth 50 Hz pulses by itself, so TinkerPie's processor stays free. Servo power comes in through a reverse-polarity-protected screw terminal with a 470 uF capacitor, and up to eight bricks can be chained for 128 servos.
Features
- 16 standard 3-pin servo headers
- PCA9685 controller: smooth 50 Hz pulses, no CPU load
- Screw terminal for 5-6 V servo power, reverse-polarity protected
- 470 uF capacitor absorbs servo current peaks
- 220 ohm on every signal
- I2C 0x40-0x47 - chain up to 8 bricks (128 servos)
