My application has two 12 v dc motors that I want to operate in both
directions with speed control. I have two potentiometers to determine speed
control for each motor. I have one push button and three to five switches
for state control.

I initially didn't plan on speed control for each motor and I had a PICKit
2 so I opted for the Low Pin Count development board with the setup for the
pic16F690 microprocessor.  The documentation for that microprocessor says
the pmw can be set up for one, two or four channels but it has just one pwm
module.

The processor that microchip suggests has more pins and I'd have to
purchase more development hardware.  I have the code completed and working
for the five input state controller and the two adcs monitoring the motor
speed potentiometers.  Does anyone have suggestions for speed and direction
control of the two motors where I don't have to purchase new development
hardware?  I thought about two micros in a master slave configuration but
that would make development and prototyping on my desk difficult.

Thanks,
Rob
