Standard miniature analogue servo is controlled with a PWM signal of frequency 50Hz with a duty cycle period between 1 ms (rotate to 0) and 2 ms (rotate to 180 degrees), where 1.5 ms corresponds to 90 degrees. Some servos have other duty cycle minimum and maximum values, always refer to the documentation.
 <note warning>Do not keep the servo rotating when leaving the lab. Implement your code as non-repeating. A servo that remains rotating for a long time may easily wear out its gears, overheat and even burn!</note> <note warning>Do not keep the servo rotating when leaving the lab.

 A servo has a red arrow presenting the gauge's current position. <note important>Note that servos tend to have relatively high implementation inaccuracy. Moreover, as the arrow is not in the centre of view of the camera but instead to the corner, the reading may be subject to error because of the parallaxes and lens distortion.</note>  A servo has a red arrow presenting the gauge's current position. <note important>Note that servos tend to have relatively high implementation inaccuracy.

 A good understanding of the PWM signal and duty cycle is necessary. In this scenario, we use built-in timers to control the PWM hardware channels of the STM32WB55 chip. In this case, we do not use any external library; instead, we use the hardware timer library built in the Arduino Core STM32 framework for STM32WB55 (stm32duino)(("stm32duino", https://github.com/stm32duino)) so that no additional external libraries will be included in the project. A good understanding of the PWM signal and duty cycle is necessary.

For example, the servo in our laboratory (MG90/SG90) accepts values starting from 500 ms, and ending at 2500 ms. If there is a need for a high accuracy of rotation, it is possible to fine-tune the minimum and maximum duty cycle values.
