5kQ potentiometer VRl is used to adjust the motor speed and this is connected between pins 14/15 of the TL494 IC and ground, with the wiper going to pin 3 (feedback) via two series resistors. Does this potentiometer adjust the output voltage?Silicon Chip groupSilicon Chip...
How Does PWM Work? PWM works by pulsating DC current, and varying the amount of time that each pulse stays ‘on’ to control the amount of current that flows to a device such as anLED. PWM is digital, which means that it has two states: on and off (which correspond to 1 and 0 i...
What is a hologram and how does it work? Laser beams are split up in order to construct a hologram, causing the light waves that make up the two parts of the beam to travel in similar fashion. It is due to this that the image seems to change. This is also what lends holograms thei...
The MPPT solar charge controller is one of two primary kinds of charge controllers on the market. The alternative is a pulse width modulation or PWM charge controller. A PWM functions with a transistor that rapidly opens and closes to modulate the panels’ current. The primary difference between...

These functions can be used to implement PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) if desired. The microcontroller incorporates a ‘Waveform Generator’ that can control the Output Compare signal behaviour depending on the setting of certain mode bits in the respective Timer/Counter’s Control Registers (TCCRx ...
Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) In PWM, you simply turn the sine wave on and off. This is an easy way to send Morse code. PWM is not that common, but one good example of it is the radio system that sends signals to radio-controlled clocks in the United States. One PWM transmitter is...
O-10v vs. Pulse Width Modulation: What is missed by many “lesser” knock off LEDs, is the drivers/circuitry used to power each emitter. Like daisy chaining Christmas lights together; one simply daisy chains an LED emitter without changing voltage to each emitter in the chain.It’s this ci...
