Many embedded-microcontroller applications require generation of analog signals. An integrated or stand-alone DAC fills the role. However, you can often use PWM signals for generating the required ...

Measurement of average power in a 60Hz circuit (equivalent to V RMS × I RMS × cos(ø)) can be done by sampling the product of voltage and current and averaging. This requires four quadrant ...

Pulse-width modulation (PWM) peripherals have enjoyed a long association with microcontrollers and power control, starting with motor control and power conversion. For the most part, these ...

Understanding the capabilities and differences of linear and pulse-width modulated (PWM) AC power sources is especially helpful when determining which models meet your requirements. And, the selection ...

What is pulse width modulation? Pulse width modulation (PWM) is a powerful digital technique for controlling analog circuits with a microprocessor’s digital outputs. PWM is employed in a wide variety ...
