Group Assignment:¶
Individual Assignment¶

Add an output device to a microcontroller board you’ve designed and program it to do something.¶
For my Output week 1st spiral, I modified my latest circuit to be able to connect Servo motors as the output.
Previous circuit was as follows;
Copy the previous KiCAD folder in Windows explore.
Change the folder name into “KICad_Servo_Out”.
Change following three files name as same name as the new folder name.
Changing three files’ name as new folder name.
Confirm if the “Update PCB” functions.
Check the Pin order of normal Servo Motor.
Added 2pin flat connector for outside 5V power.
Added 4pin flat connector for RX TX communication week following my instructor Kae’s suggestion.
Added Diode Shottky for outside 5V power.
Schematics for the two Servo Output circuit
Checked “Run DRC” as no error
Measured actual Potentiometer size as follows;
B10K Potentiometer measurement size
Outside Diameter of cylinder 16.5mm
Pin Pitch 5.0mm
B10K Potentiometer measurement size
Outside Diameter of cylinder 16.5mm
Pin Pitch 5.0mm
Since the potentiometer pin position is higher than the cylindrical part at the bottom, I decided to make a hole for cylindrical part for soldering fixation.
Make a hole with the center from the center pin at the distance of 13.25mm
16.5/2 + 5 (pin distance from case edge) = 13.25mm
With above measurement result, I designed additional part in my previous Development Board.
Mention actual Potentiometer size into PCB drawing

Arduino Code for Analog input and output test with potentiometer¶
int anavalue;
void setup() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
pinMode(A2,INPUT);
// put your setup code here, to run once:
Serial.begin(115200);
}
void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
anavalue = analogRead(A2);
Serial.print("input value:");
Serial.println(anavalue);
delay(100);
}
I checked the input signal is read in plotter.
Then I made the following code by referencing the Book “Prototyping Lab by Shigeru Kobayashi” page 217.
#include <Servo.h>
int anavalue;
Servo servo;
void setup() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
pinMode(A2,INPUT);
// set servo signal pin as D9:
servo.attach(D9);
// put your setup code here, to run once:
Serial.begin(115200);
}
void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
anavalue = analogRead(A2);
// scaling the input value from 0 to 180:
int angle = map(value, 0, 4095, 0, 180);
// set servo angle:
servo.write(angle);
Serial.print("input value:");
Serial.println(anavalue);
delay(100);
}
I had following error by Arduino IDE;
WARNING: library Servo claims to run on avr, megaavr, sam, samd, nrf52, stm32f4, mbed, mbed_nano, mbed_portenta, mbed_rp2040, renesas, renesas_portenta, renesas_uno architecture(s) and may be incompatible with your current board which runs on esp32 architecture(s).

It seems I have to download and install the Servo library for XIAO-ESP32C3.
Here under are several method to install Servo library into Arduino IDE.
* How to install Servo Library in Arduino IDE
Reading above information, I decided to follow Dlloydev/ESP32-ESP32S2-AnalogWrite
Search XIAO-ESP32 Servo Library from Arduino IDE Sketch though “Manage Libraries”.
Install “ESP32-ESP32S2-AnalogWrite” Library into IDE.
Downloading the library into IDE
The library installation page explains to set following code at the beginning of IDE programming.
Then I modified my code as follows;
#include <Servo.h>
// Servo myservo = Servo();
Servo myservo;
int anavalue;
// Servo servo;
void setup() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
pinMode(A2,INPUT);
// set servo signal pin as D9:
myservo.attach(D9);
// put your setup code here, to run once:
Serial.begin(115200);
}
void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
anavalue = analogRead(A2);
// scaling the input value from 0 to 180:
int angle = map(anavalue, 0, 4095, 0, 180);
// set servo angle:
myservo.write(D9, angle);
Serial.print("input value:");
Serial.println(anavalue);
delay(100);
}
Then got following error by Arduino IDE.

I modified several part and confirmed several times and came to following coding which still have few errors.
#include <Servo.h>
Servo myservo = Servo();
// Servo myservo;
int anavalue;
// Servo servo;
void setup() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
pinMode(A2,INPUT);
// set servo signal pin as D9:
myservo.attach(D9);
// put your setup code here, to run once:
Serial.begin(115200);
}
void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
anavalue = analogRead(A2);
// scaling the input value from 0 to 180:
int angle = map(anavalue, 0, 4095, 0, 180);
// set servo angle:
myservo.write(D9, angle);
Serial.print("input value:");
Serial.println(anavalue);
delay(100);
}
Then I decided to ask Copliot with following prompt;
Would you check what it wrong with following code for Arduino IDE?
------------copied above mentioned coding-------------
Got following advice by Copilot;
On ESP32 family boards, including ESP32‑C3, the classic Servo.h can be problematic depending on core/library versions. The commonly recommended approach is using ESP32Servo for stable PWM servo control on ESP32 boards. [docs.arduino.cc], [github.com]
So I recommend switching to:
#include <ESP32Servo.h>
Then I decided to change the librarry from “ESP32-ESP32S2-AnalogWrite” to “ESP32Servo(by Kevin Harrington, John K.Bennett)”.
I copied the modified coding by Copilot as a trial.
#include <ESP32Servo.h>
Servo myservo;
int anavalue;
const int POT_PIN = A2;
const int SERVO_PIN = D9; // If upload gets unstable, change to D8 [3](https://lab.seeed.co.jp/entry/2023/04/03/120000)[4](https://qiita.com/ginger/items/476012a24c6b30121606)
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
// analogRead works without pinMode, but it's okay to keep it
pinMode(POT_PIN, INPUT);
// SG90 typical pulse range
myservo.setPeriodHertz(50);
myservo.attach(SERVO_PIN, 500, 2400);
}
void loop() {
anavalue = analogRead(POT_PIN); // 0..4095 typical
int angle = map(anavalue, 0, 4095, 0, 180);
angle = constrain(angle, 0, 180);
myservo.write(angle); // <-- Correct usage
Serial.print("input value: ");
Serial.print(anavalue);
Serial.print(" angle: ");
Serial.println(angle);
delay(20); // 20ms is a nice servo update interval
}
It worked with my Development Board.
Then I modified a bit about potentiometer opertion angle to make it less angle operation to drive the servo full angle (180deg).
I was instructed by Shsheen and Rico at the Agian Session to avoid using the connection cable from Servo input socket to the PCB Pin. This can cause additional noise into the Servo control might makes potential vibration or noise sound at operarion.¶
I should have designed to use male pin for servo connector on the PCB Board.
void loop() {
anavalue = analogRead(POT_PIN); // 0..4095 typical
// int angle = map(anavalue, 0, 4095, 0, 180);
int angle = map(anavalue, 0, 2048, 0, 180);
angle = constrain(angle, 0, 180);
