Arduino for ODROID-GO - Servo Motor

You can control a Servo motor on ODROID-GO with Arduino.

Make sure that you have these products:

• ODROID-GO
• A Servo motor
• M-M jumper cables (3 EA)
• A MicroUSB cable

Set up the development environment for Arduino on your system.

Please refer to the picture below when you set up your hardware.
We use the parts below:

• Servo motor

• Download Fritzing example file: odroid-go-servomotor.fzz
  • ODROID-GO: fritzing_odroid-go.fzpz

Connect each other directly using the jumper cables.
The pins from the 10 pin header(P2),

• P2-1: GND
• P2-4: GP15 (I/O)
• P2-5: GP4 (I/O)
• P2-6: 3.3V

Select one between P2-4 and 5 port for transferring a data.

Click the Files → Examples → ODROID-GO → Applications → Servo_Motor menu to import and press CTRL-U to compile/upload.

Uploading is complete when the message “Hard resetting via RTS pin…” is seen.

After the upload completes, ODROID-GO reboots automatically.

You can adjust a frequency and a duty value(pulse, microsecond) with the buttons.

• B: Runs only while pressing this button.
• A: Turns on/off.
• D-Pad Up/Down: Change frequency to the one of 50, 100, 200, 500 Hz. 50 Hz is standard.
• D-Pad Left/Right: Increase/Decrease duty value by 50 microsecond (0.05 millisecond)
  • It ranges from 1000 uSec to 2000 uSec.
  • 1500 uSec (1.5 mSec) is neutral.
