Hi:I don't want to send pulse signals to a servo or ESC, I want the Arduino board to drive the motors, of course through a H-bridge. So the output should be a proportional control of motors.
The UNO has 6 PWN outputs, does it mean that it can proportionally (varying the pulse width) control up to 6 DC motors?
What if I need to control just one? Is there any smaller Arduino board for this purpose?
As for studying programming with the IDE, do you mean I can simulate an Arduino without having it?
Thanks for your reply.
PWM, not PWN. Depends on the H-bridge used - some require a PWM pin per
direction, so 3 motors, not 6. Others have an enable input that can be PWM'd
and thus only need one PWM pin per motor. You will run out of other pins first
probably!
