Gravity: Analog Voltage Divider V2 Module

As we Makers delve deeper into tinkering with fun electronics, the balancing of circuits and voltages becomes the core of any project. Electricity can be moody at times and behave in unexpected ways. To avoid damaging any components or fingers, many makers use essential elements within a circuit to regulate voltage and current levels. Sometimes the power from your analog signal is too high and a voltage divider, like this Gravity Analog Voltage Divider V2 module, needs to split the difference and output a safer voltage level for the rest of your circuit.

The Gravity Analog Voltage Divider V2 Module is designed for standard Arduino analog signals which typically require inputs of up to 5V. With a maximum voltage detection of 25V, the Gravity Analog Voltage Divider uses resistor divider principles to reduce incoming power as much as 5 times. You can use this module for countless applications where your DIY projects requires a large voltage turned into a smaller voltage. The Gravity Analog Voltage Divider is one of the most fundamental circuit components in the Maker’s arsenal.
