Explore the intricacies of Arduino-controlled Dual PWM and Timer functionality in this 35-minute video tutorial. Learn how to independently control two PWM motors using a single rotary potentiometer and switch, and understand the limitations of Arduino's native PWM implementation. Discover the benefits of using a specialized PWM library and gain insights into the three independent timers on Arduino, including why adjusting Timer Zero can lead to unexpected results. Follow along with a real-life project implementation that demonstrates practical applications for robotics, vehicles, and other motorized projects. Download the PWM library, demo sketch, and additional resources from the provided GitHub repository to enhance your Arduino programming skills.
