I was looking at doing a servo project and bought a GWS-S03N servo motor and the HB3 PMOD. Looking at various sites, I have not seen anyone using the HB3 to control a servo.
Is the only purpose of the HB3 to allow higher voltages to the servo motor than the Basys2 can output? It appears that pulse control is still coming directly from the FPGA board. So, if I used a higher voltage to the PMOD and motor, is there any chance of damaging the FPGA by connecting it directly to the control line of the servo?
Is the HB3 more (or only) intended for driving standard DC motors and not servo motors?
