SERIAL R/C SERVO AND I/O CONTROLLER

The PicoServio (or Servio) is an intelligent serial R/C servo and I/O slave controller capable of controlling up to 20 R/C servos with 16-bit resolution and 256 speed settings. It has eight A/D converter ports capable of 10-bit resolution at 40 samples per second. The controller has two PWM signal generators capable of up to 10-bit resolution with direction control for H-Bridge connections. Any unused A/D or servo ports can be configured as digital I/O.

The Servio offers powerful features such as monitoring and sweep commands that offload the burden of constant polling and control from the master CPU. An included comprehensive user and technical manual explains all aspects of operation and provides code examples.

The Servio consumes less than 14 mA and weighs only 0.8 oz. (22 grams) in a 2.5² × 2.5² (63 mm × 63 mm) footprint, which makes it ideal for battery and mobile operations. PicoServio costs $99.95.
