Kitronik 16 Servo Driver Board for the BBC micro:bit

Product information "Kitronik 16 Servo Driver Board for the BBC micro:bit"

Take your robotics project to the next level with the (i2C) Kitronik 16 Servo Driver Board for the BBC micro:bit. Capable of controlling 16 servos which are powered directly from the board's power supply. The board can be powered either through the terminal blocks or the on-board header for radio control receiver packs. The pins from the BBC micro:bit are broken out to pads on the end of the Servo Driver Board, in accordance with the Link Standard for BBC micro:bit accessories. These pads can either be soldered onto directly, or they are the correct spacing for our PCB pin headers (see image below for a close up of the pads).

Features:

  • Input voltage 3V - 5.5V.
  • Drive up to 16 servo motors.
  • Servos take power directly from the board power supply.
  • Standard 0.1" pitch servo connectors.
  • Terminal blocks for easy connection of power.
  • Includes Edge Connector for the BBC micro:bit to slot into.
  • Link Standard compatible.
  • Access the other BBC micro:bit pins easily and conveniently.

Dimensions:

  • Length: 67.4mm.
  • Width: 62mm.
  • Height: 16mm.

Kitronik Simple Servo Control Board for BBC micro:bit
The Simple Servo Control Board offers a simple interface between the BBC micro:bit and up to 3 servos. The board features an edge connector for the micro:bit to slot into and in addition to the servo pin header connections, there are also 6 croc-clippable pads for adding additional devices. The servo pin header connections are on a 0.1 inch (2.54mm) pitch and are labelled on the board as; Power, Ground and Signal. The 6 croc-clippable pads, at the bottom of the board, break out the P0, P1, P2 pins from the micro:bit. There are also pads for 3.3V and GND, with the final pad (Switch A) which allows for connecting an external switch. The board is powered from 3x AA batteries (with attached battery cage) which powers the servo’s and is regulated to the required voltage to power a BBC micro:bit. The board includes a power switch to turn the servo’s and BBC micro:bit on or off. The power LED at the top of the board indicates when the board is active. The simple servo control board has mounting lugs on either side. They have been designed for use with elastic bands so that the board can be connected to your project without the need for tools. Code it with MakeCode: Kitronik has created custom blocks for the Simple Servo board for use with MakeCode. To add these blocks, first go to MakeCode. and start a new project.
