The paper introduces design of the control system of intelligent revolving stage for videotape

and especially stresses the hardware architecture and software realization

PIC18F2580 single-chip micro-computer is key chip of the system

the data was collected by a 10 bit A/D converter and was transmitted via the CAN bus.With its simple designs of hardwares and softwares

credible capability

and high practicability

the system gave a full play of the inner resources of PIC chip.
