  2. Pulse-width modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-width_modulation

    In telecommunications, PWM is a form of signal modulation where the widths of the pulses correspond to specific data values encoded at one end and decoded at the other. Pulses of various lengths (the information itself) will be sent at regular intervals (the carrier frequency of the modulation).

  3. Power electronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_electronics

    The carrier-based PWM technique compares the AC output waveform, v c, to a carrier voltage signal, v Δ. When v c is greater than v Δ , S+ is on, and when v c is less than v Δ , S− is on. When the AC output is at frequency fc with its amplitude at v c , and the triangular carrier signal is at frequency f Δ with its amplitude at v Δ , the ...

    An oscillator circuit that produces an output signal that is in a fixed timing relation to a reference input. phase modulation Impressing information on a carrier wave by advancing or delaying the waveform slightly; related to frequency modulation. phasor A vector representing a signal of a given frequency in phase space. phasor measurement unit

  5. Switching control techniques - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switching_Control_Techniques

    PWM is considered the most common deterministic technique. Considering the example of a DC-DC converter, a controlled switch is designed to “cut-off” the DC waveform into a pulse-shaped waveform. Therefore, the voltage of this signal alternates at the switching frequency between a maximum value and zero.

  6. Random pulse-width modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_pulse-width_modulation

    Electromagnetic interference (EMI) filters have been widely used for filtering out the conducted emissions generated by power converters since their advent. However, when size is of great concern like in aircraft and automobile applications, one of the practical solutions to suppress conducted emissions is to use random pulse-width modulation (RPWM).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_management...

    Power management integrated circuits (power management ICs or PMICs or PMU as unit) are integrated circuits for power management. Although PMIC refers to a wide range of chips (or modules in system-on-a-chip devices), most include several DC/DC converters or their control part.
