Description
Drive High-Current Loads with Ease
The BeagleBone Load Cape is an expansion module (cape) that lets your BeagleBone board directly drive high-current loads such as relays, motors, solenoids, and high-current LEDs ā without extra external driver circuitry.
šÆ Key Features
- Eight 3-ampere, 50-volt current sinks for high-current applications
- Integrated I2C EEPROM for automatic board identification
- Follows the standard BeagleBone Cape Interface Specification for plug-and-play compatibility
- Ideal for driving relays, motors, solenoids, and high-power LEDs directly from your BeagleBone
