LED-driver circuits can be dimmed by applying a variable duty cycle (pulse-width modulation, or PWM) to the LED. PWM exploits LED behavior: At higher current levels, the LED’s light output is higher ...
A few weeks ago, I saw a reader’s question about how to run PS3 cooling fans using an external electronics circuit. At the time I was busy with some other projects. The other day, I decided to put my ...
Pulse width modulation (PWM) control, which uses variable-width digital pulses to represent the amplitude of an analog waveform, has been around for decades. The first specialized PWM IC dates back to ...
