- Order number: NCD-PR22-8
- Manufacturer product ID: PR22-8
This 4-Channel power PWM FET driver allows 8-Bit variable control of high-current loads using your favorite IoT communications technology via I2C communications. This PWM FET driver uses four BUK98150-55A power FETs, allowing cloud control of 4 channels of High-Power LED or incandescent lighting from anywhere in the world. The BUK98150-55A is capable of controlling up to 55VDC and 5.5 Amps of current (8 Watts of Heat Dissipation), making it an ideal choice for most low-voltage DC lighting applications. The PCA9633 chip is used as a driver for this controller, making communications easy and expandable to up to 62 devices on a single I2C port.
This 4 Channel I2C PWM FET driver works with particle photon, electron, onion omega, wipy, lopy, RS485, USB, Wireless communication technologies.
What is the NCD IoT Interface?
The NCD IoT Interface provides users with a means of changing or upgrading the IoT communications technology as new technologies emerge. The NCD IoT Interface is directly compatible with Particle Photon for WiFi communications, Electron for Cellular Communications, Bluz for Bluetooth. Optionally, adapters may be installed to provide a direct interface to Arduino Nano, Micro, USB, PyCom WyPy, Onion Omega, Raspberry Pi, and much more. The NCD IoT interface allows you to re-use your hardware so it never becomes obsolete! Based on I2C communications, the NCD IoT Interface uses only 2 GPIO lines of your microcontroller, freeing the rest of your CPU for other tasks.
Unlimited I2C Expansion
Based on our plug-and-play I2C interface standard, all NCD IoT devices are equipped with a I2C expansion port, making it easy to expand to a wide variety of sensors, current monitors, relay controllers, PWM controllers, and much more! We are always designing new expansions for our plug-and-play I2C framework. We are dedicated to building a product line of interconnected devices to simplify all forms of automation. Re-use or upgrade your hardware in seconds by selecting the modules that best fit your needs, and chaining them together using the included I2C expansion cables!
