Hello All!

I am attempting to drive a hobby servo with my PIC18F452 by using the CCP port to output a PWM signal.  Hobby servos work with a 45Hz signal and I am having trouble slowing down the PWM signal from the PIC to anything even close to 45Hz.  I have the prescaler and period registers set so I get the slowest possible speed but its still too high.  The only option I have found left is to lower the clock speed of the PIC itself, which interferes with other elements of my code.  What I am asking is if there is a way to insert a pause or slow down the PWM output even more.  If any of you have experience driving hobby sevos any advice you have would be most welcome.  Thanks in advance!

-Matt
