is 100% duty PWM output on a pic effectively 5V out ?

(1/7) > >>

Simon:
well as title. If I set the PWM duty at 100% is that effectively continuous output ?

Baliszoft:
It is, yes. Such as 0%.

Yaksaredabomb:
One thing to keep in mind is that some circuits will not behave as expected at 0% or 100% pwm.  For instance, see the second chart on page 3:

The LED driver never reaches 100% output even with 100% pwm, and it goes to 0% output as soon as you drop below 11% pwm.

Good luck!

Simon:
except I'm driving a mosfet that will run a fan

Yaksaredabomb:
Okay nvm then haha.  Sounds like fun.
