Waveshare Servo Driver HAT for Raspberry Pi, 16-Channel, 12-bit, I2C

The Waveshare Servo Driver HAT for Raspberry Pi is a compact and efficient PWM expansion board designed for controlling multiple servos with high precision. Powered by the PCA9685 controller, it provides up to 16 independent PWM/servo outputs with 12-bit resolution while using only the I2C interface. The board features a standard 40-pin GPIO header compatible with Raspberry Pi series boards and Jetson Nano. An onboard 5V regulator delivers up to 3A output current and supports external power input through the VIN terminal. Ideal for robotics, automation, robotic arms, and servo-based projects, it helps eliminate PWM limitations and servo jitter issues commonly encountered with direct GPIO control.
