Waveshare Serial Bus Servo Driver Board is a compact bus servo driver board that integrates both servo power supply and control circuitry for serial bus servo projects. Based on th e official Waveshare product page and documentation, it is designed for ST/SC series serial bus servos and can connect to a host computer or MCU through UART to control servo movement and read back status information such as angle, load, voltage, and operating mode. Waveshare positions this board as a practical control interface for robotics projects such as robotic arms, hexapod robots, humanoid robots, and wheeled robots. The official wiki also notes that it can theoretically manage up to 253 bus servos when adequate power is provided, and it supports operations such as changing servo IDs and switching between servo mode and motor mode. Features Official Waveshare serial bus servo driver board Designed for ST/SC series serial bus servos Integrates servo power supply and control circuitry on one board UART communication for host computer or MCU control Theoretically supports up to 253 bus servos with adequate power supply Supports reading back servo angle, load, voltage, and mode information Supports programming servo ID and operating mode changes Compact board for robotics projects with limited installation space Specifications Supported servos: ST/SC series serial bus servos Input voltage: 9V to 12.6V Additional input range noted by official wiki: 5V to 8.4V can also be input Communication interface: UART Baud rate: should match the connected servo baud rate Power supply interface: 5.5 x 2.1mm DC jack Additional power input: terminal block USB interface: USB Type-C Product dimensions: 42 x 33mm Mounting hole diameter: 2.5mm Weight: 16g Interface Overview 5.5 x 2.1mm DC power supply interface Power terminal block USB Type-C interface Control mode switch interface Bus servo control interface UART communication interface Applications Robotic arm control Hexapod robot projects Humanoid robot motion systems Wheeled robot servo feedback control Bus servo evaluation and development MCU and host-computer based robotics systems Packing List Bus Servo Adapter (A) x1 Notes The official documentation notes that the input voltage must match the servo voltage in use. Maximum servo count depends on adequate external power supply capability. Resources Official Waveshare wiki Show more
