## PWM Introduction
Please kindly review the [pwm pages](/helios4/pwm) from the Helios4 device.
Basically the PWM mechanism of Helios64 board is same with Helios4.
## Fan Control Schematic

**Remarks**
| Description | Header P7 | Header P6 | Remarks |
|-----------|---------|-----------|---------|
| PWM pin | PWM0 | PWM1 | 5V tolerant |
| SENSE pin | GPIO4_C5 | GPIO4_C7 | no kernel module/userspace apps that make use of this pin yet |
| PWM Frequency | 25 kHz | 25 kHz | defined in device tree |
## Fan Specification in Helios64
Coming Soon.
## Use Case in Linux
Coming Soon.
!!! Notes
RPM readings in the PWM fans is not available in Helios64 board.

## PWM Introduction
PWM, or pulse width modulation is a technique which allows us to adjust the average value of the voltage thats going to the electronic device by varying duty cycle of the power at a fast rate.
The term *duty cycle* describes the proportion of 'on' time to the regular interval or 'period' of time; a low duty cycle corresponds to low power, because the power is off for most of the time. Duty cycle is expressed in percent, 100% being fully on. When a digital signal is on half of the time and off the other half of the time, the digital signal has a duty cycle of 50% and resembles a "square" wave. When a digital signal spends more time in the on state than the off state, it has a duty cycle of >50%. When a digital signal spends more time in the off state than the on state, it has a duty cycle of <50%. Here is a pictorial that illustrates these three scenarios:
