It is ideal for robotics projects such as hexapod walkers, kinetic art installations, or LED control applications where standard Arduino PWM pins are insufficient or already in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shield is Arduino-ready and compatible with Arduino boards that support shields, including Uno, Leonardo, Mega, and ADK. It is based on the PCA9685 I2C-controlled PWM driver and operates independently once configured, freeing your microcontroller from continuous signal generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe product ships fully tested and assembled, with included headers and terminal block. Minor soldering is required to attach and customize the headers, a straightforward task suitable even for beginners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e16-channel, 12-bit PWM output via I2C interface\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt-in clock for fully free-running operation\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo continuous signal updates required from the microcontroller\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5V compliant, allowing control from 3.3V Arduino boards while driving up to 6V outputs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdjustable PWM frequency up to approximately 1.6 kHz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e12-bit resolution per channel for high-precision control\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConfigurable push-pull or open-drain outputs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSix address select pins for stacking up to 62 shields on a single I2C bus (up to 992 outputs total)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHardware \u0026amp; Design Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3-pin connectors arranged in groups of four for connecting up to 16 servos simultaneously\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTerminal block for external power input\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptional 0.1″ breakout power connections\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReverse polarity protection on the terminal block input\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreen and red power indicator LEDs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e220-ohm series resistors on all output lines for protection and easy LED driving\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDedicated space for adding a large capacitor on the V line if needed\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSolder jumpers for all six I2C address select pins\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntegrated 5 × 20 prototyping area for custom wiring or modifications\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIncluded Components\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFully assembled and tested 16-channel PWM servo shield\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour 3 × 4 male straight headers for servo or LED connections\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne 2-pin terminal block for power input\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne strip of 0.1″ header for Arduino connection\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePackage Contents\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 × 16-Channel 12-Bit PWM Servo Shield with I2C Interface (PCA9685 Compatible)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"38-3D","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51389724066088,"sku":"Arduino_PWM_Shield","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0762\/7581\/0600\/files\/Arduino_PWM_Shield_0.jpg?v=1769889377","url":"https:\/\/pt.38-3d.co.uk\/products\/pwm-shield-for-arduino","provider":"38-3D","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
