PWM and old school...

Dears

How could i generate PWM through 3 pins rotary by using only transistors, OPamps, 74xx and 40xx.. i mean without microchips...??

could anyone help me in this issue...

Is this a school assignment? :)

Maybe you can ask professional people's advice. :)

If you aren't using microchips, then opamps, 74xx and 40xx series logic are out of the window!  And what on earth do you mean by "through 3 pins rotary"?

PS. Do your own bloody homework!

  • Did that just blow up? No? might work after all !!

errr 555 timer ? there are other more elaborate ways with opamps but you'd need to understand the various circuit topologies to put together am opamp version

LM339 or TL494 for example.

you mean a 3pin rotary encoder with quadrature output ? that would be a challenge without a micro.
if you just need a PWM generator, then 555 - google for "555 servo tester"

I think some of the meaning has been lost in translation.

Presumably by no microchip, you mean no microcontroller?

Are you talking about using a potentiometer to control the duty cycle of a PWM signal?

Here's how to do PWM with commonly available ICs:

555 Timer


LM393, comparator


CMOS logic gates

You need to be logged in to see the images above.

It's also possible to so this with discrete transistors but I don't have the circuit handy at the moment.
