Questions and Answers

Explain PWM generation and its significance.

PWM stands for Pulse Width Modulation, and it is a technique used to generate analog signals using digital means. It is significant in controlling the power provided to electrical devices, such as motors and LEDs, and in generating variable voltage and current outputs.

What are the types of PWM?

The types of PWM include center-aligned PWM, edge-aligned PWM, and combinational PWM. Each type has its own advantages and applications in different electronic systems.

How does PWM contribute to efficient power management?

PWM allows for precise control of the average power delivered to a load by varying the duty cycle of the signal. This contributes to efficient power management by reducing power dissipation in electronic systems and enabling energy savings.
