Description
Description
The excellent cost/performance ratio of the PIC16C5X makes it well suited as a low-cost proportional D.C. actuator controller. This application note depicts a design for a remote intelligent positioning system using a D.C. motor (up to 1/3 hp) run from 12V to 24V. The position accuracy is one in eight bits or 0.4%. The PIC16C5X receives its command and control information via a Microwire serial bus. However, any serial communication method is applicable.
