Monk Makes – Servo board for micro:bit
The MonkMakes Servo for microbit board provides a really easy way to attach up to three servomotors to a BBC micro:bit. The board requires a power supply or battery pack to provide 5 or 6V to the servomotors. It includes a voltage regulator that will supply 3V back to the micro:bit, so that you don’t have to power it separately.
The board has been designed to allow for alligator/crocodile connections to the microbit. This means that there is no need for mechanical assembly or soldering.
You can write code for the attached microbit using either the MakeCode editor or MicroPython (linked in the resources selection below).
Features:
- Allows you to control up to 3 servos with the microbit.
- When powered the board will supply power to the servos and microbit.
- Connect it to the microbit with alligator/crocodile clips.
- Use the MakeCode blocks/javascript or MicroPython editors .
