How to program a fan controller on mbed Application Board with a LPC1768?
Hi all,
I'm planning to make a PC fan controller but i don't know how to program it. I want it to display the RPM of the fan as well as the voltage im putting into them. I also would like to be able to control the fans with a rotary dial that controls voltage output to 0-12v.
Thanks all!

All of what you want is doable. There are examples of how to do each stage already in the system. If you don't know how to program it then learn.
