We will connect the potentiometers to the analog inputs A0 and A1. To do this, attach the motor shaft to the potentiometer knob. The other will function as a sensor of the current axis position. In this case, the potentiometer (that we’ll call COMMAND) determines the position of the motor. One of them will only serve to give us a way to send a position for adjustment. But this time, we'll add two potentiometers. Next in setup function we attached servo to pin 9 and made analog input A5 as input.The assembly will be performed in practically the same way as in the previous video. Next, declare a variable myServo of type Servo. Here we first included the servo library into the sketch. MyServo: A variable of type Servo Circuit Connection:Ĭonnect the signal pin of the servo motor to the Arduino digital pin 5 and the power and the ground pins to the 5V and GND pins of the Arduino. If all the servo motors are detached, pin 9 and 10 can be used for PWM output using analogWrite(). Syntax: myServo.attached() Parameter:ĭetach(): detaches the servo motor from its pin. Returns true if attached, false if otherwise. Syntax: myServo.read() Parameter:Īttached(): Checks whether a servo is attached to a pin. Returns angle of the servo from 0 to 180 degrees. Read(): Read the current angle of the servo motor. Value: the value to set the servo to an angle or to speed and direction.

On continuous servos, this sets the speed and direction, 0 is for full in one direction while 180 is for full-speed in another direction. On standard servo motors, it set the angle for the servo to rotate. Write(): Write a value to the attached servo pin. Max (optional): the pulse width, in microseconds, corresponding to the maximum angle (180-degree) on the servo motor. Min (optional): the pulse width, in microseconds, corresponding to the minimum angle (0-degree) on the servo motor. Pin: the Arduino pin number connected to servo Servo: Creates a variable of type servo Syntax : Servo myServo Īttach(): Attach a servo motor to a pin Syntax: myServo.attach(pin) To know what is a library? and how it should be used please read this post what is an Arduino Library? Library Explanation: To interface a servo motor and send instructions to it, we first need to include a built-in servo.h library. The servo motor are controlled by PWM signal. Ground: A black or brown wire for ground. Power: A Red wire is usually for the power supply cable. Select a motor according to your load requirements.Ībove picture shows typical servo motor pinout. A typical hobby servo motor comes with a load capacity of 2.5kg/cm. Similarly, if the weight is placed at 2 cm from the center of the shaft it can only lift a weight of 2.5kg only. This means a 5kg/cm motor can lift a weight of 5kg at a distance of 1 cm from the center of the shaft. When the position of the rotor matches with the signal position then the motor stops to rotate.Įvery servo motor comes with a load capacity expressed in KG/cm. If there is any difference between these two then the feedback will connect the rotor circuit to the supply and the rotor rotates. This feedback mechanism checks the position of the rotor and signal given to it. Servo motors contain a rotor connected to a feedback mechanism. Servo motors operating on DC voltage are called DC-Servo motors and on AC voltage are called AC servo motors. These are used to rotate something to a certain angle or to push or to pull, controlled by a signal. You can buy the above components by clicking on the Amazon.in links belowĪ Servo motor is an electric motor with a servo mechanism. To interface servo motor with Arduino, we should first know about Pulse width modulation (PWM) and Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) concepts you can find from my previous posts Servo motors are widely used in robotic projects, these are lightweight, high torque, and angle of rotation can be controlled by feedback.
