Description
The DS-RCB was developed to provide a simple solution to the requirements of servo controlled robotic and control projects. The following control configurations are supported: 1) Eight servos driven from an external OOPic or OOPic II. 2) Sixteen servos driven from the supplied DS-SCX16S via I2C or serial (i.e. PC port). 3) Eight or sixteen servos driven from a BASIC Stamp or compatible controller. 4) Combinations of the above. The DS-RCB provides a servo power regulator capable of supplying 5V @ 3A to the connected servos from an external battery pack of 7.2 to 15V and features a disable link to allow the use of low voltage battery packs of 3.6 to 4.8V. A servo power control switch is provided to allow the servos to be disabled and battery power is indicated with an on-board power indicator.

A Windows XP/2000/ME PC application is available, see documentation to the right, to allow simple control of all 16 servos when using the DS-SCX16S and is also bundled with the DS-R232CAB PC serial cable. Click here for a screen shot.
