Pulse Width Control Apparatus and Method - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17836046 Titled 'Pulse Width Control Apparatus and Method'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes a system that generates a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal with a specific duty cycle. The system includes a square wave generator that delays an input square wave signal to produce multiple square wave signals. These square wave signals are then processed by a logic device, which performs a logic operation on two of the square wave signals. This operation results in the generation of the PWM signal, with its duty cycle determined by the two selected square wave signals.


Original Abstract Submitted

Systems, methods, and devices are described herein for generating a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal having a specific duty cycle. In one embodiment, the system includes a square wave generator and a logic device. The square wave generator is configured to delay a input square wave signal to generate a plurality of square wave signals. The logic device is configured to perform a logic operation to two of square wave signals of the plurality of square wave signals, which in turn generates the PWM signal having a duty cycle corresponding to the two square wave signals.
