Re: Servo command confusion?!?!?!?!

I believe the atom does not have hardware pwm in the chip. The servo command is a software implemented pwm. The sevo command is going to take a good amount of time. If you have to control the Servo signal very fast then you'll need hardware pwm. The FRC has several hardware pwm outputs. there are several other microcontrolers that have pwm hardware or you could use a seperate pwm chip to control the servos.
