PCB Wiring

Connections

  • Laptop USB -> Arduino USB
  • Arduino +5V -> PCA9685 VCC/VDD
  • Arduino GND -> PCA9685 GND/VSS
  • Arduino SDA (pin A4) -> PCA9685 SDA
  • Arduino SCL (pin A5) -> PCA9685 SCL
  • PSU +5V -> PCA9685 V+
  • PSU GND -> PCA9685 GND
  • SERVO1..6 PWM -> PCA9685 CH1..6 PWM
  • SERVO1..6 5V -> PCA9685 CH1..6 5V
  • SERVO1..6 GND -> PCA9685 CH1..6 GND

Important Notes

  • Arduino does NOT power the servos.
  • Servos are powered directly from PSU.
  • All grounds must be connected together.
  • PCA9685 generates hardware PWM signals.
