Lab Title: Open-Loop Digital Control of a DC Motor

In this laboratory, students learn how to obtain and view digital feedback signals from the motor. They obtain the digital feedback signals from two separate sources - a slotted disc and a four-bit gray-code disc. They also learn how to drive the motor using a digital pulse-width modulated (PWM) signal.
