3、 Overview of PWM Controller
PWM controller is a control strategy that adjusts the duty cycle of pulses to control the average level of the output signal. It controls
the required output by periodically switching the power supply and adjusting the ratio of switching time to off time. PWM controllers are
widely used in application scenarios that require simulation of continuous signals, such as DC motor speed control, LED brightness
adjustment, audio amplifiers, etc.
principle
The principle of PWM controller is to control the voltage and current in the circuit by changing the width of the pulse. In PWM signals,
the high-level duration is longer and the low-level duration is shorter, which changes the power output in the circuit. Specifically, when the
PWM signal is at a high level, the switches
in the circuit will open and current will flow through the load; When the PWM signal is at a low level, the switch will close and the current will
stop flowing. Therefore, by changing the time ratio of the high and low levels of the PWM signal, it is possible to control the voltage and current in the circuit.
application
PWM controllers are commonly used in application scenarios that require simulation of continuous signals, such as DC motor speed control,
LED brightness adjustment, audio amplifiers, etc. In these applications, PWM controllers can accurately control the average level of the output
signal by adjusting the duty cycle of the pulses, thereby achieving precise control of the equipment.
