Pololu Mini Maestro 18-Channel USB Servo Controller (Assembled)

Pololu Mini Maestro 18-Channel USB Servo Controller (Assembled)

The 18-channel Mini Maestro 18 raises the performance bar for serial servo controllers with features such as a native USB interface and internal scripting control. Whether you want the best servo control available (0.25?s resolution with built-in speed and acceleration control and pulse rates up to 333 Hz) or a general I/O controller (e.g. to interface with a sensor or ESC via your USB port), this compact, versatile device will deliver. This fully-assembled version ships with header pins installed.

This fully-assembled version ships with header pins installed.

Main Features

Three control methods: USB, TTL (5 V) serial, and internal scripting
0.25 μs output pulse width resolution (corresponds to approximately 0.025° for a typical servo, which is beyond what the servo could resolve)
Pulse rate configurable from 1 Hz to 333 Hz ⁽²⁾
Wide pulse range of 64 μs to 4080 μs ⁽²⁾
Individual speed and acceleration control for each channel
Channels can be optionally configured to go to a specified position or turn off on startup or error
Alternate channel functions allow the channels to be used as:
- General-purpose digital outputs (0 V or 5 V)
- Analog or digital inputs (channels 0 to 11 can be analog inputs; channels 12+ can be digital inputs)
- One channel can be a PWM output with frequency from 2.93 kHz to 12 MHz and up to 10 bits of resolution
