This circuit is a fan controller which is using the pulse width modulation (PWM) method. It is tiny (33.78mm x 54.76mm) and easy to build. Functions of the circuit parts are listed below; VR1: 10 K ...

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 ...

Well, I'm using Noctua fans which are damned well made. I was originally going with Redux fans, but I found them too noisy, so I'm going to return them in favour of NF-S12A PWM which come with a 1:2 ...

A cooling system can sometimes be a buzzkill. You drop your badass engine into your badass hot rod, and then you remember you've got to keep it cool. As an afterthought, you order a big aluminum ...

So Manual control choices looks like this: 0.75PWM value/Centigrade ~ 2.25 PWM value/Centigrade, with .5 increments in between. This may as well be Greek to me. I get that fan speed should increase ...

Cooling electronic systems has always been an important design consideration. As electronic systems continue to shrink and become more powerful, heat dissipation isn't just important—it's a critical ...

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 ...
