This module enables you to easily control upto 3 high-power loads over an I2C or SPI interface.
Possible uses:
- Driving high-power LEDs or incandescant bulbs
- Driving high-power common-anode RGB LEDs
- Driving standard motors
The board is equipped with 8 screw connectors, 3 for the outputs, 3 for V+ and 2 for GND.
The PCB is equipped with two I2C connectors, so chaining multiple I2C modules is an option.
This allows you to control the FETs with only 2 data lines (SDA and SCL). This makes it possible to chain multiple modules without the need for more IO pins!
The board can be used with all microcontrollers, such as the Atmel AVR, Arduino/Freeduino boards, Microchip PIC, etcetera. Other computers/boards with an I2C interface (such as the Raspberry Pi) should also be able to control this module.
The module comes with all connectors pre-soldered:
One male 1x4 I2C connector, and 1 female I2C connector, (one for input, and one for daisy-chaining).
8 screw-connectors for power and outputs
