Description
The M5Stack C-Back HAT is a servo driver expansion board for M5StickC projects. It uses an STM32F030F4P6 control solution and communicates with M5StickC through the I2C interface.
The board provides four PWM servo drive interfaces. The servo drive power is directly connected to the M5StickC internal battery, which can drive common servo models such as SG90 according to the official product description.
The M5Stack C-Back HAT also brings the I2C bus out from the top of the StickC and provides an additional GPIO interface through the STM32 for general logic-level input/output and ADC analog signal input reading. LEGO-compatible holes on the back make it easier to integrate the driver board into LEGO-style structures and servo robotic arm projects.
