SERVOS: controlling more than 3 servo motors using any PIN
PostPosted: Wed Apr 24, 2013 1:40 pm     Reply with quote

Hi everyone. I was need control various servos motors but the PIC 18F4550 has just 3 PWM's, then I create this library and test to create various PWM's using TIMER 0 and 4 MHz (if you need change it, change on library) on any PIN that you want. (sorry my bad english, I'm from Brazil).

The use was very simple, as you can see below:
Code:

#include <18F4550.h>
#fuses HS
#use delay(clock=4000000)

#include "aev_servo.c"

void main(){ 
   
   // declaration of variables PWM's (all must to be integer)
   int pwm1, pwm2, pwm3;

   // setup all pwm's that you'll use
   pwm1 = pwm_setup(830, PIN_E0);   // returns the index of the PWM (the first is 0)
   pwm2 = pwm_setup(590, PIN_E1);   // returns 1 (second)
   pwm3 = pwm_setup(950, PIN_C0);   // returns 2 (third)
   
   // init the pwm's
   pwm_init();
   
   // update value from pwm2 (PIN_E1) after 10 seconds
   delay_ms(10000);
   pwm_update(pwm2, 600);
 
   while(1){ }
}


///////////////// METHODS ///////////////////////
//
// pwm_setup ( int16 DUTY_CYCLE, int16 PIN)
// setup the PIN will use PWM
//
// pwm_update( int PWM, int16 NEW_DUTY_CYCLE)
// change the duty cycle from a created PWM
//
// pwm_init()
// initialize the PWM's
//
// pwm_stop()
// stop the PWM's
//
/////////////////////////////////////////////////



The aev_servo.c library is below:

This program uses:
RAM: 7%
ROM: 5%


Please test and if you found any bug, please tell me!
Thanks a lot ;)[/b]

NOTE

NOTE: you can calibrate the 0 degrees and 180 degrees from the servo whenever you insert or remove one servo. For example, if you work with 3 servos, it has one zero and one 180. If you work now with 4 servos, it has another zero and another 180 becouse onde servo motor more or less interfere directly in the processing by timer 0, so, always works with the maximum amount of the servo motors in the program.
