Driver for the PCA9685, a 16-channel, 12-bit PWM chip

Dependencies

=============

This driver depends on:

* `Adafruit CircuitPython `_

* `Bus Device `_

* `Register `_

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem.

This is easily achieved by downloading

`the Adafruit library and driver bundle `_.

Installing from PyPI

====================

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally `from

PyPI `_. To install for current user:

.. code-block:: shell

    pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-pca9685

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

.. code-block:: shell

    sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-pca9685

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

.. code-block:: shell

    mkdir project-name && cd project-name

    python3 -m venv .venv

    source .venv/bin/activate

    pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-pca9685
