Connect the ground wire (brown) and the power wire (red) to the ground pin and the 5V pin, respectively.
Connect the signal wire (yellow) to the D10 pin of the LinkIt 7697 HDK.
Note
When using a servo (or servos), it is suggested to use additional power sources, other than the 5V pin on the HDK, for powering the servo(s). Because servos tend to consume more currents, by separating the power sources between servos and the HDK, it helps MT7697 SoC work properly with a stable power supply.
