Small Servo Connecting and Coding with mbed:

Because servos require a decent amount of power you should always use an external power source rather than USB!:

Code:

// Hello World to sweep a servo through its full range
 
#include "mbed.h"
#include "Servo.h"
 
Servo myservo(p21);
 
int main() {    
    for(float p=0; p<1.0; p += 0.1) {
        myservo = p;
        wait(0.2);
    }
}
