Servo Motor consists of a DC Motor, a Gear system, a position sensor, and a control circuit. The DC motors get powered by a battery and run at high speed and low torque. The Gear and shaft assembly connected to the DC motors lower this speed into sufficient speed and higher torque. The position sensor senses the position of the shaft from its definite position and feeds the information to the control circuit. The control circuit accordingly decodes the signals from the position sensor and compares the actual position of the motors with the desired position and accordingly controls the direction of rotation of the DC motor to get the required position. Servo Motor generally requires a DC supply of 4.8V to 6 V.
