SG90 Micro Servo Motor

Motor

Small, light servo motor whose shaft turns to the angle you ask for (0-180°) and stays there; for robot arms, door latches and pointer projects. Driven from a single signal pin with Arduino's Servo library. One unloaded servo can run off the Arduino's 5V; for several, or under load, use an external 5V supply and join the grounds.
