If your computer's running a little loud for your tastes, it's probably because your fans are running at full speed—even if they don't need to be. Here are a few ways to manage your fan's speed so ...

PWM or Pulse Width Modulation has generally been regarded as too complicated for PC fan speed control compared against using rheostats or linear voltage regulators such as the LM317. I present here a ...

The LM317T from National Semiconductor is a popular adjustable-voltage regulator that provides output voltages of 1.25 to 37V with maximum 1.5A current. You can adjust the output voltage with a ...

Trying to get AIO Fan speed back to MB (BIOS says no CPU fan reported, but it can be ignored). Temperatures are not an issue. The thing is, no included cable, and the connector on the Fan Controller ...

Sometimes you need to generate a pulse-width-modulation (PWM) signal for your circuit to simulate a certain behavior. The technique described here generates a simple programmable PWM signal for less ...

Typically, CPU fan noises are heard when you reboot your PC (the whirring sound you may have heard upon startup) and it goes on to decline as the startup process completes. The purpose of fans on your ...
