A servosystem for use, for example, in a scanning copying machine, comprises a motor (70a) within a closed loop also including a tachometer (23), sign and count logic (405), UP/DOWN counter (406), digital-to-analog converter (407), filter (408) and power amplifier (410). A counter (403) is employed to determine the velocity of motor (70a) by applying timed pulses to logic (405). The counter receives a sequence of integers from a table in microprocessor (100) through latches (404). When a particular integer is placed in the counter, it counts down in response to clock pulses from clock (401) until it generates a borrow pulse, which is the pulse applied to logic (405). At this time latches (404) are activated either to apply the same or a new integer into the counter. Thus the timing of the borrow pulses and, therefore the velocity of the motor, is determined by the values of a sequence of integers applied from the microprocessor. |
