File content as of revision 1:df2cee74ab8b:

//This software is derived from the example Nucleo_pwm.
//It outputs a PWM signal that is compatible with Tower Pro SG90 servos.
//It makes the servo move from one programmed position to another each time the
//user button is pressed.
//The programmed positions are defined by the values that are stored in
//the variable "pulseDurationInMicroSeconds". 
//An index counter is used to select which value is to be used to set the pulse
//duration of the PWM signal that controls that servo.
//The value of this index counter is changed each time the user button is
//pressed and the changes are made in a way that makes the program repeatedly
//cycles through all the possible positions.
//It is just necessary to add values to "pulseDurationInMicroSeconds" to have
//the servo adopt more positions.

//Just connect the brown wire of a SG90 servo to GND, its red wire to AVDD and
//its the orange wire to D11 to have the SMT32-F401RE contol the servo.
//
