ServoIn Class Library

This class library uses external interrupts with timer functions to read servos pulses on mbed input pins.

ServoIn Library usage example

#include "mbed.h"
#include "ServoIn.h"

DigitalOut led1(LED1);
ServoIn servoIn1(p15);
ServoIn servoIn2(p14);
Serial pc(USBTX, USBRX); // tx, rx

int main() {    
    pc.baud(921600);            //Fast baud rate
        
    while(1) {
        led1 = 1;
        wait(0.05);
        led1 = 0;
        wait(0.05);
        
        pc.printf("servo pulse: CH1=%5dus  CH2=%5dus\r\n", servoIn1.read(), servoIn2.read());        
    }
}
