Development of a RF Servo motor from a DC motor
This project implements RC servo motor from normal DC motor. The idea, behind this was to have in house cheap RC servos. The major components are DC motor, multiturn potentiometer, Philips P89V51RD2 microcontroller, H bridge controller. It demonstrates practical implementation of PID controller for position control. Challenge was to develop proper constants values for the three controllers and generate error signals as PWM signals. Position information is conveyed through the potentiometer coupled to the shaft of the motor.
Code is written in Embedded C in Keil IDE.
