⚙ Metal Gear Transmission
Unlike plastic gear servos, the MG90S includes metal gears, which offer:
• Higher strength and durability
• Better resistance to wear
• Increased torque capability
• Longer operational lifespan
🎯 Precision Position Control
The servo receives PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) signals from a microcontroller to control its angle.
Typical control characteristics:
• Rotation range: 0° – 180°
• High positional accuracy
• Smooth movement responseCompatible controllers include:
Arduino Uno Rev3
ESP32 Development Board
Raspberry Pi 4 Model B
🔌 3-Wire Control Interface
The MG90S servo uses a simple three-wire connection:
| Wire Color | Function |
|---|---|
| Brown | Ground (GND) |
| Red | Power (4.8V–6V) |
| Orange/Yellow | PWM Control Signal |
This makes it easy to integrate into most electronics projects.
