1.6 Servo Expansion Board

Img

1.6.1 Introduction

The servo expansion board is fully compatible with the Micro:bit V2 mainboard. It has an onboard slot for four AAA batteries, five SK6812 RGB LEDs, and four sets of standard 3-pin peripheral interfaces with a spacing of 2.54mm. Besides, it can expand to RGB LED light strip and control 3 servos.

DIP Switches:

  • The right one:

    • ON: The power is supplied by the battery box.

    • OFF: The power supply is cut off.

Img

  • The left one:

    • RGB: The Micro:bit V2 board can be programmed to change the colors of the five onboard SK6812 RGB LEDs. Moreover, the 3-pin interface on the pxl-bxt can also be connected to the SK6812 RGB light strip to control its colors.

    • SERVO: The Micro:bit V2 board can be programmed to adjust the angle of the external servos at 3-pin interface of SERVO3.

Img

  • Note: The SK6812 RGB LED and SERVO mode are multiplexed. Please switch to the corresponding mode according to your need.

1.6.2 Parameters

Img

  • Operating voltage: 3.3V ~ 6V (recommended onboard power supply: 4 AAA batteries(1.5V each), with the nominal total voltage about 6V).

  • Standby current: About 60mA (excluding peripherals).

  • Maximum output current: About 600mA (affected by the battery internal resistance and load, the peak value varies from battery brands and conditions).

  • Maximum power: About 3.6 W (6V × 600mA; actual value depends on the load).

  • Operating temperature: -25℃ ~ 65℃

  • Dimensions: 64mm × 58mm × 21mm

  • Weight: About 28.1 g (the battery holder is included, batteries and Micro:bit V2 board are not).

  • Environmental: ROHS

  • Interfaces and resources:

    • Onboard SK6812 RGB LED × 5 (programmable full-color).

    • 3-pin servo interface × 3 (SERVO1/SERVO2/SERVO3, standard GND/VCC/SIG 3-pin).

    • General 3-pin 2.54mm interface × 4 (GND/VCC/SIG, GND/3.3V/D-out).

    • Interface for SK6812 RGB LED strip × 1 (GND/3.3V/D-out).

  • Insert four new AAA batteries, paying attention to the correct polarity.

  • Connect external devices:

    • RGB expansion: Connect the programmable RGB module to the 3Pin interface (note the DIN direction).

    • Servo expansion: Connect the servo signal wires to SERVO1/2/3 (brown/black = GND, red = VCC, orange/yellow = SIG).

  • DIP switch settings:

    • Switch the right-side power to ON to enable power supply.

    • Switch the left-side to RGB or SERVO according to your application mode.
