ADC Exp-06

The document describes an experiment to examine the operation of a PWM modulator and generation of PPM signals from PWM signals. It provides the theory of PWM and PPM modulation, the apparatus used, block diagrams of the PWM and PPM modulators, the circuit diagram, and procedures to observe the waveforms of the input, PWM, and PPM signals on an oscilloscope. The goal is to understand how the width of PWM pulses and position of PPM pulses vary with the amplitude of the analog input signal.

Name of Experiment: To examine the operation of the PWM modulator and the
wave- forms of the signals & the (PPM) signal generation starting from the PWM
signal, and to examine the signals wave-forms.

Theory:

As already said in the introductory lesson, a pulse carrier can be amplitude


modulated, and in this case we speak of PAM modulation, or time modulated. In this
second case we generally speak of Pulse Time Modulation (PTM): two examples of
PTM are the Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) and the Pulse Position Modulation (PPM).

A PWM signal is a pulse signal which pulses width is proportional to the


amplitude of the modulating analog signal (fig.989.1d). The PWM signal can also
be used for the PPM signal generation. This is a pulse signal where the pulses
position is proportional to the amplitude of the modulating analog signal (fig.989.1e).
The PPM pulses are generated by the leading edge of the PWM pulses.

Wave-forms Procedure PWM Modulator:


 Power the module
 Set the circuit to PWM mode (set SW4=PWM, as in fig.003)
 Connect 1kHz-2Vpp to the modulator analog input (connect TP24 to TP1 and adjust the signal
level to 2Vpp)
 With the oscilloscope, examine the wave-forms of the input analog signal (TP1) and the
PWM signal (TP10)
 The PWM signal is generated as follows:
 The input analog signal (TP1) is connected to a S&H input, providing the output with a
step signal (TP7). The sampling pulses for the S&H can be detected in TP5
 At each sampling interval, a Saw-tooth Generator supplies a ramp signal (TP8)
 The next PWM modulator, consisting in a comparator stage, compares the PAM signal
(TP7) and the ramp signal amplitudes
 The comparator commutes the output when the PAM signal overcomes the amplitude
of the ramp signal: in this way you obtain a pulse ramp signal (TP10) which pulse
duration depends on the amplitude of the input analog signal
Wave-forms Procedure PPM Modulator:
 Set the circuit to PWM mode (set SW4=PPM)
 Connect 1kHz-2Vpp to the analog input of the modulator (connect TP24 to
TP1 and adjust the level of the 2Vpp-signal)
 With the oscilloscope examine the wave-forms of the input analog signal
(TP1) and the PPM signal (TP10)
 The PPM signal (TP10) is generated starting from the leading edges of the
PWM pulses (TP9). Note that the PPM pulses have fixed duration, and
change only of position. The position variation as function of the
modulating analog signal is pointed out with the sampling pulses (TP5) and
the PPM pulses (TP10)
