Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) - Friday Minis 205

How do microcontrollers and other logic level components put out an analog value? Turns out, many of them don't, but pretend to do so using a clever method called Pulse Width Modulation, an intimidating way of saying "switching things on and off really quickly".

    Very interesting video once again. i just spent a small fortune replacing all my fans for Noctua's on the quest for quietness and performance and its one of the best things i ever did what a difference, so this is how are PWM fans are speed controlled i take it with longer bursts of power to speed the fan up by the mother board and fan control software?.

    Hello and thank you for your comment! Yeah, exactly! Though your CPU may not be powering your fan directly - Instead it may be flipping the switch to another power source rapidly over time.
