Instead of asking the Pi Linux kernel to send these signals, pop on this handy bonnet! It adds the capability to control 16 Servos with perfect timing. It can also do PWM up to 1.6 KHz with 12 bit precision, all completely free-running.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor use with Raspberry Pi Model Zero, A+, B+, Pi 2, Pi 3 or Pi 4 (any Pi with 2x20 header).\u003c\/strong\u003e This bonnet will not fit on an original Raspberry Pi with 2x13 pin header.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Adafruit 16-Channel 12-bit PWM\/Servo Bonnet will drive up to 16 servos or PWM outputs over I2C with only 2 pins. The on-board PWM controller will drive all 16 channels simultaneously with no additional Raspberry Pi processing overhead. What's more, you can stack up to 62 of them to control up to 992 servos - all with the same 2 pins!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorks with any servo that can be powered by 5V and take 3.3V logic level signals. There's a solder jumper you can adjust if you'd like to change the output logic level to be 5V\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBest of all, Adafruit even have a Python library you can use, so you'll be up and running instantly, to make your robotic creation come to life. The Adafruit PWM\/Servo Bonnet is the perfect solution for any project that requires a lot of servos or PWM outputs! \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/learn.adafruit.com\/adafruit-16-channel-pwm-servo-hat-for-raspberry-pi\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePlease check out the detailed tutorial for lots more information including diagrams, schematics, installation instructions and more\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach order comes with a Servo Bonnet, a 2-pin terminal block, 2.1mm DC jack, and four 3x4 headers. You'll need to do some light through-hole soldering to attach the terminal block or jack, and headers onto the bonnet circuit board, but its easy to do with basic soldering tools like a soldering iron and rosin core electronics solder. If you would like to stack multiple bonnets onto one Pi, you can also pick up a 2x20 stacking header and a set of right-angle 3x4 headers that should be soldered on instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note!\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eThis kit does not come with Raspberry Pi, servos, or required 5V power supply.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTECHNICAL DETAILS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoard Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e (w\/o components): 65mm x 30.4mm x 8mm \/ 2.5\" x 1.19\" x 0.31\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8.5g \/ .29oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRevision History:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAs of December 7, 2022\u003c\/strong\u003e - Adafruit have updated this PCB with \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/adafruit\/Adafruit_Pinguin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eAdafruit Pinguin\u003c\/a\u003e to make a lovely and legible silkscreen - you may get the new PCB or the older version with vector fonts - both are identical other than the fancy silkscreen.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Adafruit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":2821150736394,"sku":"ADA3416","price":12.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/products\/3416-03.jpg?v=1522077394","url":"https:\/\/shop.pimoroni.com\/en-eu\/products\/adafruit-16-channel-pwm-servo-bonnet-for-raspberry-pi","provider":"Pimoroni Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
