New Servo-liciousness
Dave Hrynkiw
December 9, 2008
For far too long we've toiled under the merciless grip of the Gear Motor. But no more! For behold, there appears a trio of defiant servos to overthrow the tyrannical rule!
*cough*
But seriously forks, we have three new units available from Grand-Wing Servo. The 22140 GWS Modified Servo is a useful continuous rotation, full-sized unit. There's also the 22150 Sub Micro Servo - NARO HP BB and 22160 Pico Servo - PICO+ BB, which both feature a ball-bearing supported output shaft and Futaba connector. What's really impressive about these last two units, though, is their size. They are tiny, measuring less than 23x12x22mm. Check 'em out yourself for pictures, stats and dimensions.
Long live the servo!

Circuit: Stepper Motor
This is a neat little one-chip circuit we originally tuned for use with our "SM1" Stepper motors. We've presently sold out of the motor, but this circuit has proved to be a good unidirectional (1-way) driver for small stepper motors.
Solarbotics has been operating for more than 25 years, bringing electronics know-how and supplies to both the electronics professional and hobbyist. We'll be happy to help you too!
