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 ...
Lots of modern phones use pulse width modulation, or PWM, to manage brightness. But what is PWM, why is it harmful, and what can you do about it? We give you all the details.
High-brightness LEDs (HBLEDs) are making inroads into more traditional lighting applications that include a dc distribution system (for example, 24-V MR-16 track lights). HBLEDs are more efficient, ...
Microchip Technology Inc. has announced that it continues the relentless production rollout of its 16-bit dsPIC® Digital Signal Controllers (DSCs) with two devices that offer designers performance ...
This application note presents Z16FMC microcontroller used to control 3-phase brushless BLDC motors in a sinusoidal PWM modulation mode. It discusses the ways in which to implement sinusoidal PWM ...
Many applications using miniature brushed DC motors require motors to operate at more than one load point or through specific load cycles. Running a motor at usable load points requires a variable, ...
