SPEED CONTROL OF DC MOTOR USING

PULSE WIDTH MODULATION

SYNOPSIS

The main aim to select this project is to acquire a practical

knowledge in the field of Automation using Embedded system.

This project speed control of DC motor using the principle of

Pulse

Width

Modulation.

Here

PIC16f870

(28

Pin

package)

Microcontroller chip is used as main processer. We can select to

control the speed. Here the LCD display shows the mode selection.

The speed of the motor

goes on increasing by pressing the

increment button and successively the speed can be decremented by

pressing the decrement button. By using Pulse Width Modulation
technique. We can get variable speed through the high speed
Darlington transistor.
