Atmel ATtiny2313 Servo Controller v0.1 - source code
The jitters and general instability of the hacked together simple servo controller (see here) for the ATtiny2313 were, it seems, down to the fact that the internal clock wasn’t stable enough and this caused enough timing issues to throw the PWM off enough to jiggle the servo position around rather than hold it steady. This morning my external 4MHz crystals arrived and after changing the processor’s fuse bits to accommodate the change in clock source everything was fine and the code started behaving itself.
The source code for the servo controller follows; as mentioned before, it’s a) pretty simple and b) heavily based on the code that I found here for the AT90S4414. It may be better to adjust it to work at an RS232 baud rate friendly clock speed, but I expect I’ll move away from the hard coded timing loops as soon as possible if I can and this might make such clock speed adjustments slightly easier.
The next step is to expand this to use one (or more) of the demultiplexer chips so that I can expand the number of channels supported.
