About:

Finally, the popular PWM decoder chip has it's own dedicated breakout board! Easily plug your standard Futaba connectors directly from your RC receiver into this board, and similarly, using Dupont connectors, plug your SainSmart Relay boards into this board's matching pin-headers! Still supports 5x TTL inputs, and 10x high-floating outputs triggered on the highs and lows of the individual channel ranges. (P/N KL-PWM02001-B)

Prerequisites:

The board ships assembled and fully tested. It will come with 4x jumpers in the event you only need to decode one channel. This is because if you don't use all the channels, you need to be sure to wire all the unused channels to ground with one of these supplied jumpers.

Utilization:

This board can be used to drive up to 10 relays in any number of sain-smart configurations. The pins float high, so if you are using your own relay, be sure they trigger on low. Once the relays are attached, you could remotely control anything you want, motors, linear actuators, lights, and more!
