Resolution question

Open warbunnies opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

Hi,

Wanted to say this is an awesome project and I'll be trying it out as soon as the parts are properly shipped over!

And now onto my question: I am curious about the max resolution achievable with this set up. The last dc motor driver I worked with could only be tuned to +/- 5 pulses max with the best pid settings. What kinda variation are you seeing when you tune in your PID settings?

The maximum achievable accuracy depends on a ton of factors but I can get easily +/- 3 counts (which is less than one encoder slit as each one counts 4 units).
