Features:<\/strong>
\nThis board\/chip uses I2C 7-bit address between 0x60-0x80, selectable with jumpers
\nTerminal block for power input (or you can use the 0.1\u2033 breakouts on the side)
\nReverse polarity protection on the terminal block input
\nGreen power-good LED
\n3 pin connectors in groups of 4 so you can plug in 16 servos at once (Servo plugs are slightly wider than 0.1\u2033 so you can only stack 4 next to each other on 0.1\u2033 header
\n\u201cChain-able\u201d design
\nA spot to place a big capacitor on the V+ line (in case you need it)
\n220 ohm series resistors on all the output lines to protect them, and to make driving LEDs trivial
\nSolder jumpers for the 6 address select pins
\ni2c-controlled PWM driver with a built in clock. Unlike the TLC5940 family, you do not need to continuously send it signal tying up your microcontroller, its completely free running!
\nIt is 5V compliant, which means you can control it from a 3.3V microcontroller and still safely drive up to 6V outputs (this is good for when you want to control white or blue LEDs with 3.4+ forward voltages)
\n6 address select pins so you can wire up to 62 of these on a single i2c bus, a total of 992 outputs \u2013 that\u2019s a lot of servos or LEDs
\nAdjustable frequency PWM up to about 1.6 KHz
\n12-bit resolution for each output \u2013 for servos, that means about 4us resolution at 60Hz update rate
\nConfigurable push-pull or open-drain output
\nOutput enable pin to quickly disable all the outputs<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
