Version 3.2
The DS201 – I2C current detection module is an 8 channel current detection module. It has the same pinout as the PCA9685 PWM module and can therefore be connected in the same way. For connecting this module to Loconet, the DS104 – Lnet I2C interface can be used.
The module has one common pin labeled C and each detection circuit has it’s own detection pin.
The DS201 – I2C current detection module is sold as do it yourself project containing PCB and all components.
