    Default using all pins of pwm in pic 18f2431

    hi, i have a very good question about this PIC.

    i want to control 6 motors using just this PIC.

    anyone knows how can i use this 6 PWM channels?

    i just know how to control 2 motors using HPWM in CCP1 and CCP2 ports.....

    What kind of motors?
    What's the end application?
    What kind of PWM frequency do you need?
    Do you need full control over the duty cycle? (i.e. 0-100% in 1% steps, 10% steps, etc.etc.)

    Default more specifications

    i want to control 6 CD motors, (with this respectives half-h Bridges).
    the frequency around 500-X is fine.
    i dont need full control over the duty-cycle, aronud 10% steps are fine.
    just i need the hardware of this pic working!,
    this are for a robotic arm.

    Look around for Darrel Taylor's slow speed software based PWM routines...
