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 ...

I realize I am resurrecting a rather old thread, but has there been any updates on this? I too have PWM fans I bought for a 3 year old motherboard that I thought had PWM fan headers. I can't seem to ...

So my PC was noisy and I invested in 120mm Akasa Apache fans. Now I have 4 Apache fans (2 on the CPU cooler), 1 sucking the air out at the back and to balance the pressure, one Apache blowing cold air ...

Proper thermal dissipation is an essential rule for nowadays electronics. The best operating temperature for the electronic components is 25 degrees (standard room temperature). Thermal dissipation in ...

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 ...

The point of this guide is to show the latest and greatest in fan control technology on Intel Z270 motherboards and to help you understand what each brand has to offer in their high-end products. I ...

Corsair just rolled out the Commander Duo Lighting and Fan Controller, a new gadget aimed at anyone who runs a mix of different fans inside their PC. Instead of juggling multiple hubs or bits of ...

Here is an example of the built circuit on a small piece of stripboard. The 2p coin gives an indication of size. I have not included the diode D1 in this example. Side view. General layout of ...

[Alan] noticed that his external hard drive was getting quite hot to the touch after a few hours. He says that it was probably designed to handle the heat sufficiently, he thought it would be fun to ...

Thanks to PWM control, the speed of the Sharkoon SilentStorm PWM fans is controlled exactly as required by the mainboard, offering up to a maximum speed of 1,400 revolutions per minute. The ...
