Hi all,

want to run

 

a

 

servo

 

using the

 

STM32

 

Discovery

if

 

you

 

have a

 

suggestion

 

program to

run

 

the

 

servo

?

or

 

you have a

 

simple

 

code to

 

run the

 

servo

 

on the

 

STM32

 

Discovery

Thank you

Regards,

Endy

program

 

can

 

run

 

according to

 

what I want

Ok, based on some email I got on this, here is a 4 channel framework
