	I am in need of some help. I have a arm I built that uses
 a DC per-mag motor to extend it. I have 2 microswitches mounted at
 each end for limit stops. I want to be able to have it stop when it reaches
the limit stops. I came up with a circuit using triacs and a flip-flop
to drive it, but it cost to much for the parts. I can design a dawn
microcontroller, but when it comes to something this simple I'm at a 
loss. Can anyone point me in the right direction??
