Application Notes

Introduction

Generally Pulse Width Modulation is prominently used in controlling & communication


applications. Here, we are using this technique to changing the light intensity of led.

This block controls MicroDAQ PWM modules. One of three PWM modules can be
selected (PWM1, PWM2, PWM3), PWM period is defined with 1us resolution, 'Polarity'
parameters allow to generate inverted PWM waveform. Blocks input parameter range
is 0-100 (duty in %).

PWM Block:

Step 1: MicroDAQ blocks are used to access the MicroDAQ hardware.


MicroDAQ blocks are available in XCOS palette browser under MicroDAQ
palette.

Step 2: Objective is to create an XCOS model using MicroDAQ PWM blocks (see
Figure 2a). Pick all the blocks specified in the fig 2b, set the appropriate
parameters and connect as shown in the diagram.
