PWM or Pulse Width Modulation is an important and essential
concept in embedded systems. We can control speed of a motor, brightness of a
bulb or a LED etc by supplying a train of pulses. If the pulse has larger ON
time i.e. duty cycle, the average voltage supplied will be more, thus if we have
connected a motor to the output, its speed increases, if we reduce the pulse
width, average voltage supplied is less, thus the speed of the motor decreases.
Thus we can digitally control the speed of a motor without the need for an ADC.
So now we will construct a pulse width modulator using
8051(89s52) to illustrate the concept of PWM I have constructed a simple
circuit which is shown below, where a LED or small lamp is connected to the output of
microcontroller (you can also connect a small motor or fan with an additional
transistor). The microcontroller is programmed such that the brightness of
the LED increases for some time, when it reaches maximum brightness, the LED's
brightness starts to fade till its brightness is minimum and this continues.
The program appears to be bigger but it is just replication
of first main block with different values loaded in registers. The second
program published in the second table uses a concept of lookup tables.
