Servo Motor Control with PWM

Overview

This experiment demonstrates how to control the position of a servo motor using Pulse Width Modulation (PWM).

Components Required

• Servo Motor
• 555 Timer IC or Microcontroller (e.g., Arduino)
• Resistors
• Power supply
• Breadboard and wires

Procedure

1. Set up the 555 timer or microcontroller to generate a PWM signal.

2. Connect the PWM output to the servo motor's control pin.

3. Adjust the duty cycle of the PWM signal to control the servo position.

Expected Result

The servo motor will rotate to different positions depending on the PWM signal's duty cycle.
