SB Serial Servo Breakout

The Serial Servo Breakout offers remarkable versatility, as it is compatible with a wide array of Single-Board Computers (SBCs) and microcontrollers. It possesses all the capabilities found in the Serial Servo Pico HAT or the Serial Servo Shield, allowing it to excel in a variety of applications. 

You have the option to connect it to any controller using a serial interface in header form, providing seamless integration with your existing setup. Alternatively, you can connect the breakout directly to your PC or laptop using the convenient Type C interface, allowing you to control servos effortlessly through your preferred applications. Whether you choose to interface with established controllers or connect directly to your computer, our breakout system empowers you with flexible control options to meet your specific needs.

Features:

• Type C interface to use with Standalone GUI software
• UART breakout for interfacing with various Microcontrollers and SBCs.
• Screw terminal and DC jack for 6-8.4V adapter connect for servo motor supply
• Status LED to indicate board power
• Jumper Selection to switch between direct USB and Breakout mode
• Onboard 4 Serial Servo Connectors, you can cascade to add more serial servo motors. Allows controlling 1-253 serial servos at the same time*

Servo Motor Key Features:

• Real-Time Position, Load, Temperature, Speed, and Voltage feedback.
