Gravity GP8630N I2C PWM DAC Module 10V

The DFRobot Gravity module with the GP8630N converts an I2C or PWM signal into a voltage of ±10 V, 0 to 5 V or 0 to 10 V or into a current of 4 to 20 mA. The symmetrical ±10 V output controls devices in both directions, such as a servo drive: +10 V forward, -10 V reverse, 0 V stop. Via I2C the resolution is 16 bit, the error after calibration ±0.2 % of full scale.

For 0 to 10 V and 4 to 20 mA without negative voltage: Gravity GP8600 I2C PWM 1-Channel DAC Module 0-10V 4-20mA

Note: The connection cables can be converted to male pins with a Dupont cable M-M, so that they also fit an Arduino UNO.
