I made this project because I wanted a way to automatically control the speed of a DC fan according to the temperature read by a LM35 sensor. I had a few problems with the PWM part mainly because the ...

The project illustrates the control of a PC fan speed and using an Arduino microcontroller to read a LM35 temperature sensor. The use of an optocoupler is covered along with Pulse Width Modulation ...

Reads the analog temperature sensor every 100 ms. Converts analog value to temperature (°C). Stores it in a shared variable currentTemp protected by a mutex. alarmTask Checks the current temperature ...
