Ideal for Arduino enthusiasts and professionals seeking reliable, multi-servo management in a sleek form factor.

## Description

Technical Parameters: Voltage: DC5-10V power supply Communication Interface: IIC 16-way steering gear control Size:25*61mm Product features: The PCA9685 chip is wrapped in the center of the board Power input terminal Green power indicator In the 4 groups of 3-pin connector to facilitate the insertion of 16 servo motor (servo motor plug slightly wider than 0.1 ") The polarity of the reverse polarity is input on the terminal block Cascade design: V + line to place a large capacitor, the maximum external input voltage depends on the 10V 1000uf capacitor All PWM output lines have a 220 ohm series resistor protection and can easily drive LED

Review: Works great, easy to program.
Review: I have an Arduino project that requires six servos. This 16 channle servo driver is amazing. It worked flawlessly out of the box. My difficulty was that the driver uses I2C communications and that made it difficult to use the Arduino as a master since my I2C network has the Arduino as a slave. And it then became a tradeoff of using six of the Arduino outputs to drive the servos direcly, or continue with a modified I2C network and have ten channels not used. It would be nice to have this product available in an eight channel version. But, as designed, this is an amazing product. Highly recommended.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What library do you need for the Arduino to control this? Any sample code?**
A: Limor Fried wrote a lib and posted it to github: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-PWM-Servo-Driver-Library

**Q: What I2C address does this use? 0x40 like the Adafruit version?**
A: Yes.

**Q: V+ at the terminal block is not directly connected to V+ on the rest of the board. How do I get actual power to the servos?**
A: No the V+ of terminal block goes through a tiny transistor but since it does not turn on, you would have to mod the board to get power to servos from that terminal. Others just input to the pin near VCC labled V+

**Q: What are the peak amps for this board?**
A: Each of the 16 outputs is limited to about 25mA.  That would make the total current capability of the board no more than 400mA.

*by A***E on 11 September 2018*

These are cool motor drivers; they're built with fairly decent quality. You can control anything with a PWM input too, like LEDs. You can also cascade these to control over 900 servos, lol! However, some of the pins came bent; probably got bent out of shape during shipping, although reshaping them isn't too tricky with needle nose pliers, and they function. I have 2 6v servos controlled through a PCA9685 using a Arduino Uno R3 as a platform for controlling the servos with 2 10k potentiometers. Pretty neat, although there is zero documentation that come with these, so unless you've already got some information about using these you might be in a situation where you'll need to do research to supplement the lack of documentation. Luckily the Arduino community provides essential hidden knowledge to the public regarding electronics, usually free of charge, and helps to demystify these useful electronic modules. I can't imagine why a manufacturer wouldn't want an informed public to know of the usefulness of the product they're producing, which is to be sold, but these aren't too hard to work with, and looking into how to do interesting things with these isn't too tough either with all the open source projects out there that call for using these.
