Raspberry Pi Pico W LESSON 97: Understanding Servo Signal Timing Control

This is a link to the Oscilloscope I was using in today's lesson. It is not required for the class, but is a pretty cool piece of lab gear to have:

In this class we will be using the Sunfounder Raspberry Pi Pico W Keppler Kit. It will make things a lot easier if we are working on identical hardware. the link below is to amazon, and is for the identical hardware I will be using in this entire class.

In this video, I will show you how a servo works by creating pulse trains that control the position of the servo. Normally we load someone else's library to do the heavy lifting, but in today's video we show how to control the position by manually creating a pulse train. For today's video, to make it easy to understand I show you using python, but your homework will be to implement it on the State Machine. Enjoy!
