Now you can both see and hear the pulse width modulation in a PWM solar charge controller.

Sound & electricity "sounds to be the same" is this how harmonic sound frequency is generated? Essentially I wud think that pwm sound can generate the hertz necessary to power or move a DC or servo motor…. And if thru I wud assume that if you can have an electric piano synthesize and music note that of the same sound frequency as a say 50hz you chud be able to have a connection solder to motor and play a musical note at that that powers a Hertz similar to a pwm sound to move a gear head to the next teeth or spoke? Kinda like a telegraph machine or telephone knows what digits your pressing or dial tone or kinda like a fax know what your faxing and prints it or like a 3D printer moves and you hear those traveling sounds, if all this theory of mines is correct I guess I can make a bunch of motors move to a specific location by just saying it or playing a musical note, I been working on a project where I use sounds to generate power in a analog mode
sunshine in uk? I call FAAKE!!!!! 😉
Seriously though, why are those devices so slow to stabilise the duty cycle? is it a feature of solar charging equipment? something to do with MPPT? It's certainly not a feature of normal DC-DC converters which would stabilise in microseconds. Also don't see why digital vs analog control loop would affect this.
Is there any inductor in the setup?
So much focus on PWM, but no mention of buck/boost as I would expect.
Not even talk about synchronous buck-converter, that I would expect if you are really serious about efficiency. I did buy some synchronous buck-converter chips for use as battery-charger. In my case non-solar setup, but they would be ideal for solar battery charge and generic voltage/current control. (you can get them with MPPT function too, or use some microcontroller to guide it)
I love Your British accent
very interesting, im doing electrical eng at college
