What is it?
 Output signal alternates between on and off within
specified period
 Controls power received by a device
 The voltage seen by the load is directly proportional
to the source voltage

Analog Generation of PWM
Analog PWM signals can be made by combining a
saw- tooth waveform and a sinusoid
PWM output is
formed by the
intersection of
the saw-tooth
wave and
sinusoid

Digital Methods of Generating PWM
 Digital: Counter used to handle transition
 Delta : used to find the PWM at a certain limit
 Delta Sigma: used to find the PWM but has advantage of
reducing optimization noise

Advantages of PWM
• average value proportional to duty cycle, D
• low power used in transistors used to switch
the signal
• fast switching possible due to MOSFETS
and power transistors at speeds in excess
of 100 kHz
• digital signal is resistant to noise
• less heat dissipated versus using resistors
for intermediate voltage values

17
Applications of PWM
• In the past, motors were controlled at intermediate
speed by using resistors to lower delivered power
• Electric stove heater
• Lamp dimmers
• Voltage regulation – convert 12 volts to 5 volts by
having a 41.7% duty cycle
• Sound production: PWM controlled signals give
sound effects similar to a chorus
• Power transfer: PWM used to reduce the total
power given to a load without relying on resistive
losses

PWM used with D/A conversion
• commonly used in toys
• lowpass filter smooths out transients from harmonic effects
• frequency values of harmonics doesn’t change, but the
amplitude does, which adjusts the analog output signal

19
PWM used to transmit data
in telecommunications
• clock signal is found “inside” PWM signal
• more resistant to noise effects than binary data alone
• effective at data transmission over long distance transmission lines

Frequency of the PWM Signal
Upper Limits
Lower Limits
1. Must be at least 10 times higher
than the control system frequency
2. Higher than 20kHz – audible
frequency of sounds to avoid
annoying sound disturbances,
caused by magnetostriction
3. If too low the motor is pulsed, not
continuous, because the motor’s
inductance can not maintain the
current
4. Inverse of frequency should be
much less than the motor/load time
constant
5. Higher error from ripple voltages
10/29/2009
1. If too high the inductance of the
motor causes the current drawn to
be unstable
2. MOSFET transistor generates heat
during switching
3. Limited by resolution of controller
4. Eddy currents generated in
electromagnetic coils which lead to
adverse heating
5. Heat losses in electromagnetic
materials is proportional to
frequency squared

Check constraints
Set f to 25 kHz to add in a factor of safety
Choosing C1 to be 100 nF, R1 is 576 Ω ~ 500 Ω
Recalculating with these values f = 28.8 kHz
