Adafruit 16-channel PWM & Servo driver

This library is for the Adafruit 16-channel PWM & Servo board when being used with a Spark Core, and only Spark Core (sorry Arduino)

Connections

These boards use I2C to communicate. 2 pins are required for the interface:

SCL -> D1 SDA -> D0

Things to Note
Default I2C Slave Address

With no address jumpers, the default I2C slave address of the board is 100 0000 or 0x40. This default is set in the header file. If you are altering the address with jumpers, make sure to set it in the software to match.

setVal vs setPWM

setVal() provides a some abstractions and is recommended over using setPWM().

Examples

The examples included in this library are outdated, they don't work with the renaming that has occurred
