My go-to board for servo motor and ESC control This compact PCB design and 3dprinted mount brings power rails parallel to your teensy 4.0 microcontroller. Any 3-pin Futaba J connector can plug right into your teensy. Intended for use in robotics projects.

- Because its small you might have to adjust the tolerances for your printer to fit the teensy.
- You might have to sand down the headers depending on the accuracy of your print.
6. Add your power source to any set of pins on the teensy, connect your motors, and try out some pwm control.
- You can get started with the included
sketch.ino
file. - You'll need to set up your teensy and install the PWMservo library. -Check out the result in test.mp4.
The teensy 4.0 is a powerful microcontroller that can be used to control servos, ESCs, and other devices that require a pulse width modulated signal.
Sure, you could bend long headers and solder everything by hand, but that’s time-consuming and error-prone.
The pcb files were made with KiCad and exported to gerber files for JLCPCB.
The print needs high accuracy because this setup is so compact. Its smaller than most RC gyro units.
pwm can be used to control servos, ESCs, and other devices that require a pulse width modulated signal.
