control characteristics
PWM controllers are highly sensitive to signal switching frequency and duty cycle, and can accurately control the average
output level. It can quickly respond and adjust output, but does not have adaptive capabilities. The advantages of PWM controllers
are simplicity, intuitiveness, ease of implementation, and low cost, making them suitable for applications that do not require high control accuracy.
4、 Comparison between PID Controller and PWM Controller
Principle comparison
The PID controller is based on the principle of error feedback regulation, which measures the difference between the output value of the
controlled object and the expected value (i.e. error), and then processes the error according to proportional, integral, and derivative control
terms to obtain the output of the controller. The PWM controller controls the voltage and current in the circuit by changing the pulse width,
achieving control over the average level of the output signal.
Application comparison
PID controllers are suitable for application scenarios that require precise control and stability, such as temperature control, position control,
speed control, etc. PWM controllers are commonly used in applications that require simulating continuous signals, such as DC motor speed
control, LED brightness adjustment, audio amplifiers, etc. Due to the lack of adaptive capability in PWM controllers, they may not be suitable for applications that require high control accuracy.
