## Description

UltraBorg is a great way to get servos and ultrasonic sensors connected to your Raspberry Pi without the hassle of complicated code and wiring - simply plug in servos and sensors and you're ready to go! :)

You can even control your servos and read distances straight from your phone or PC using ModMyPi's Web UI.

### Features

- Compatible with all flavors of [Raspberry Pi](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi/boards.html) (B+/2/3/Zero/ZeroW), Arduino and other i2c compatible devices
- Servo Control
- 4x Precision 16 bit PWM outputs
- Controls up to 4 Servos simultaneously
- Allows saving in EEPROM of power-up, max, and min limit positions
 
- Ultrasonic Interfaces
- Interfaces with up to 4x [HC-SR04 ultrasonic modules](https://core-electronics.com.au/hc-sr04-ultrasonic-module-distance-measuring-sensor.html)
- Read all 4 simultaneously
- Controlled by the microprocessor so software timing not required
 
- Features an external 5V connector to separately power Servo/USM and Pi. Can be linked for sharing power with Pi\*.
- Supports optional [BattBorg to power Raspberry Pi from battery source](https://core-electronics.com.au/modmypi-battborg-pi-battery-power-board-soldered-kit.html) (Not Included)
 
*\*please note if you are using servos, it is recommended to power the UltraBorg separately.*
