Servo pHAT for Raspberry Pi

The Servo pHAT for Raspberry Pi is a compact and powerful HAT (Hardware Attached on Top) board designed to provide precise control for up to 16 servo motors via a simple I2C connection from your Raspberry Pi. It transforms your single-board computer into a versatile hub for robotics, automation, and interactive projects, eliminating the need for complex wiring and multiple controllers.

This board features standard 3-pin servo pinouts, making it exceptionally easy to connect a wide range of hobbyist servo motors directly. For power, it utilises a modern USB-C connector, offering flexible power options: you can choose to power the servos independently or power both the Servo pHAT and your Raspberry Pi simultaneously through the board. Integrated power protection circuits help safeguard your components from voltage spikes or incorrect connections.

Beyond servo control, the Servo pHAT includes several connectivity options to expand your project's capabilities. A built-in USB-C port provides a serial terminal connection for direct communication. It also features a Qwiic connector for seamless plug-and-play I2C connectivity with the expansive SparkFun Qwiic ecosystem, allowing you to daisy-chain sensors and modules without soldering. Additionally, a dedicated 4-pin RVR header is included for straightforward integration with the Sphero RVR robot platform.

The board arrives with a presoldered 40-pin GPIO header, ensuring a secure and reliable connection to your Raspberry Pi's GPIO pins right out of the box. Its compact dimensions make it an ideal fit for projects where space is at a premium.
