A few weeks ago, I saw a reader’s question about how to run PS3 cooling fans using an external electronics circuit. At the time I was busy with some other projects. The other day, I decided to put my ...

A cooling system can sometimes be a buzzkill. You drop your badass engine into your badass hot rod, and then you remember you've got to keep it cool. As an afterthought, you order a big aluminum ...

The simplest of fan-control schemes — an on-off switch — is simple but inefficient, because it provides more cooling than necessary most of the time. When on, the fully powered switch-controlled fan ...

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 ...

Proper thermal dissipation is an essential rule for nowadays electronics. The best operating temperature for the electronic components is 25 degrees (standard room temperature). Thermal dissipation in ...

Well, I'm using Noctua fans which are damned well made. I was originally going with Redux fans, but I found them too noisy, so I'm going to return them in favour of NF-S12A PWM which come with a 1:2 ...
