Hi, the maximum current for SC16A on servo power part is more than enough for 16 servo motors. I have personally tested it with 16A load continuously for half an hour and it is still working. May i know what is your application? Actually 10 servo motor not necessary to consume more than 6A. My personal thought 6A would be enough for 10 servo motor. :P

Another method that student usually do is connect a 7805 voltage regulator on EACH servo motor's power provided you use Lead Acid battery or Lithium Polymer Battery.

thanks 4 the advice.well my project is similar to PR18.using 10 servo,sc16a,sk40c,pic16f877a. to compare my analysis with actual hardware and apply some control engineering methods for better control and stability.
