Hi, A friend of mine had given me an old 1.2 MB 5-1/4". I had extracted the stepper and it was quite easy to interface to a 16f84A with a ULN2803. Now, I want to use the "pancake" servo motor from the drive to power a model RC Ship. The Motor's PCB has a SMD IC with the number "A13483" . I was wondering if I could make the PIC talk to this IC and control the Servo. Interfacing the motor directly with the PIC would be real messy. I remember Roman was talking of "Pancake" motors from VCRs. This one is similar to those. Could someone Plz point me in the right direction ?
