Matek AP_Periph DroneCAN to PWM Adapter
The Matek CAN-L4-PWM Adapter Node enhances unmanned vehicles by converting DShot capable electronic speed controllers (ESCs) to DroneCAN-supported ESCs and PWM servos to CAN servos. This compact adapter, featuring nine PWM outputs and full ESC telemetry support, allows for streamlined communication and telemetry feedback from ESCs when connected via CAN bus protocol.
