Re: [AVR-Chat] Re: RC servo control with codevision

2005-01-24 by Zack Widup

I thought of that but I never implemented it.  I do have a question about 
the servos, though.

I was considering using one of them to rotate a small directional loop 
antenna.  From the servo spec sheet I located, it appeared that you have 
to continuously send the pulses to the servo in order to have it hold its 
position.  Is that correct? Or is there a way of making the servo hold 
its angular position if the pulses are stopped?
