Servo Control Design

This document describes an Arduino-compatible RC servo controller board that allows recording servo motor movements using an onboard potentiometer or SD card. It can then play back recordings for a few seconds. The board includes an ATmega328 microcontroller, potentiometer, EEPROM memory, optional SD card module, and connectors for programming, power supply, and connecting a servo motor.

This is an RC servo controller board that allows users to record RC servo motor

movement and playback it back with precision. There is an onboard potentiometer to


control the RC servo up to 180 degrees. It allows you to record the movement of one
servo, a few seconds in duration. Servo movement can be mimicked using the onboard
potentiometer. Servo movement data is stored onboard the EEPROM memory chip.
The project is Arduino compatible and can be modified to work as a data logger and
other applications that require EEPROM and SD Card data logs.
The Arduino code is available as a download and the user will be able to record and
playback the RC servo movement for a few seconds with this code. After power is ON,
Recording starts when LED D3 lights up, then move the potentiometer to mimic the
servo for a few seconds until EEPROM is full and the recording LED is OFF. After a 3-
second delay, the Play LED is ON, and playback starts till the end of the movement. This
event restarts after 3 seconds.

SD CARD MODULE/EEPROM

The board has 2 options for data recording. On board EEPROM for low memory size
and SD Card module for higher data memory capacity. SD Card module can be
installed under the PCB, SD Card module works with SPI protocol and EEPROM follows
I2C protocol. Arduino example code works only with EEPROM. The SD card recording
requires additional custom code.
