PWMA0 would be on J1 pins 25,26,27 ? That would be where i would hook up the servo ?


PWMA1 Would be on J1 pins 28,29, and 30. That would be servo 2. ?


J1 gives me hook ups for 6 servos ? whats TA1-3 ? and TD?

Yes.

PWMA1 Would be on J1 pins 28,29, and 30. That would be servo 2. ?

Yes. Besure to provide the Servo(s) power on J5.

TD1,2 and TA0-3 have multiple functions. You can either use as Timers, or PWMs, or Quadrature decoders, or GPIOs. Therefore, J1 has the option for 12 Servo connections .

So J5 is my power in for the J1 connectors ? That gives me the power in Parralell then ? Cool.. Is that regulated ? or non-regulated power ?

Yes, but It only provides power for the Servos connect on J1 alone. Standard RC-Servo motor voltage range is 4.8V - 6.0Vdc.

You also need addtional power input for the controller, J0 connector. There are 5V & 3.3V volt regulators onboard. The suggested input voltage range is from 6V - 9Vdc at 200mA or higher.
