TLC5940 - controller, PWM generator - SparkFun BOB-10616

• Supply voltage: 3 V to 5.5 V
• Current consumption: 10 mA to 120 mA depending on load
• Performance voltage:
  • 60 mA for supply of 3.3 V
  • 120 mA for supply of 5 V
• Communication: SPI bus
• The resolution of the signal (PWM): 12-bit (4096 States)

The module allows to control 16 devices via a PWM signal, for example supportdrivers of DC motors, the setpoint positionof the servos, the brightness control of directly connectedLEDs. The system communicates with the main module via the SPI bus. For users ofArduino there is a library and example program for convenient operation of the module.

Outputs are openings for popular connectorsgoldpin with a raster of 2.54 mm, which allows you to easily plug in a breadboard or connect usingwires. The channels were marked on the board also, next to each available output signal: supply voltage VCC and the ground GND, which facilitates the connectionof the servos.

The set does not contain the goldpin strip, it can be purchased separately.
