FEZ Using PWM Ports and Servos Example

This code example demonstrates using PWM (i.e. pulse width modulation) port(s) to control servo’s connected to a GHI Electronics FEZ board.

This code is written in C# and assumes the development workstation has all required software installed.

using System;
using System.Threading;

using Microsoft.SPOT;

using GHIElectronics.NETMF.FEZ;
using GHIElectronics.NETMF.Hardware;
 
namespace FEZ_Mini_Application1
{
    class Program
    {
        public static void Main()
        {
            PWM servo = new PWM((PWM.Pin)FEZ_Pin.PWM.Di5);
            while (true)
            {
                servo.SetPulse(20 * 1000 * 1000, 1250 * 1000);
                Thread.Sleep(1000);//wait for a second
 
                servo.SetPulse(20 * 1000 * 1000, 1500 * 1000);
                Thread.Sleep(1000);//wait for a second
 
                servo.SetPulse(20 * 1000 * 1000, 1750 * 1000);
                Thread.Sleep(1000);//wait for a second
            }            
        }
    }
}
