I made this project because I wanted a way to automatically control the speed of a DC fan according to the temperature read by a LM35 sensor. I had a few problems with the PWM part mainly because the ...
PWM or Pulse Width Modulation has generally been regarded as too complicated for PC fan speed control compared against using rheostats or linear voltage regulators such as the LM317. I present here a ...
Withclosed loop speed control, the fan controller ensures that the fan isrunning at the desired speed by measuring the actual speed and adjustingthe duty cycle accordingly. Here the host specifies the ...
The simplest of fan-control schemes an on-off switch is simple but inefficient, because it provides more cooling than necessary most of the time. When The simplest of fan-control schemes — an on-off ...
When implementing cooling solutions for electronic equipment, system designers are confronted with a complex set of variables. The cooling requirements are typically dynamic, and ambient temperatures ...
Normal fan ports are only 1 amp, so I don't typically like running more than one fan per. That's only 5 watts, after all. Normal fan ports are 12V, not 5V. A lot of 12V fans won't even start at 5V, ...
The TC648B is a PWM fan speed controller with auto-shutdown, fan restart, and FanSense™ technology for fault detection. The device features over-temperature indication, efficient PWM drive, and it ...
