PCA9685 16 Channel 12-bit PWM Servo motor Driver I2C

Instruction
Using only two pins, control 16 free-running PWM outputs! You can even chain up 62 breakouts to control up to 992 PWM outputs (which we would really like to see since it would be glorious) It's an I2C-controlled PWM driver with a built in clock. That means that, unlike the TLC5940 family, you do not need to continuously send it signal tying up your microcontroller, its completely free running! It is 5V compliant, which means you can control it from a 3.3V microcontroller and still safely drive up to 6V outputs (this is good for when you want to control white or blue LEDs with 3.4+ forward voltages)
 
Features

    6 address select pins so you can wire up to 62 of these on a single i2c bus, a total of 992 outputs - that's a lot of servos or LEDs
    Adjustable frequency PWM up to about 1.6 KHz
    12-bit resolution for each output - for servos, that means about 4us resolution at 60Hz update rate
    Configurable push-pull or open-drain output
    Output enable pin to quickly disable all the outputs
    Terminal block for power input (or you can use the 0.1" breakouts on the side)
    Reverse polarity protection on the terminal block input
    Green power-good LED
    3 pin connectors in groups of 4 so you can plug in 16 servos at once (Servo plugs are slightly wider than 0.1" so you can only stack 4 next to each other on 0.1" header
    "Chain-able" design
    A spot to place a big capacitor on the V+ line (in case you need it)
    220 ohm series resistors on all the output lines to protect them, and to make driving LEDs trivial
    Solder jumpers for the 6 address select pins
    This board/chip uses I2C 7-bit address between 0x60-0x80, selectable with jumpers
