Servo -Sparkfun Servo Trigger

I’m interested in the Sparkfun Servo Trigger board. My question is, can this board capable of driving two servos at the same time, using the same setting of the three pots? Applying the trigger would activate both servos at the same time?
Thank You,
Jeff

Hello @JSteencken and welcome to the RobotShop forum,

It depends on the servos you will be using, the Servo Trigger can only source up to 200.0 mA through the VCC and GND Pins so you can’t use two servos if they exceed this limit.

However, you could connect the power supply and ground directly to the servos and use the control signal from the Servo Trigger for both servos (the DC Current per I/O Pin is 40.0 mA).

You can find more information in the following links:

Great idea, thank you for the quick response.
