Maker Michael Klements has built a unique electromechanical clock using a little Arduino hardware, code, and 28 servos, which tilt panels to reveal the correct time in digital format. As the time ...

Servos are pretty basic fare for the seasoned hacker. But everyone has to start somewhere, and there’s sure to be someone who’ll benefit from this primer on servo internals. Who knows – maybe even the ...

How do you make things move? You add in a motor that converts electrical energy into motion. That’s a simple idea, but how do you know where the motor is? That’s where the servo motor comes in. By ...

When multiple PWM converters are connected in series (or in parallel) in a power electronics circuit, it is appropriate to run all converters at the same frequency but with certain phase shift among ...

The company was early into adding phase-locked loop clock multipliers to give the PWM machinery something faster than the processor clock to work with. Arduino offers a simple framework to programme ...

Among all the Arduino boards, the Uno is most folks' go-to choice, and for good reason. It's the perfect platform to get started with Arduino, it's capable enough to handle a wide range of tasks, and ...

Pretty much every project I've done just lately has required me to test out some servos and experiment with their positions before they go into the assembly. I usually make a quick servo tester on a ...
