SUMMARY
The discussion clarifies the distinction between Pulse Wave and Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). Pulse Wave, also known as Pulse Train, maintains a constant duty cycle, whereas PWM features a variable duty cycle. This fundamental difference means that Pulse Wave cannot be used interchangeably with PWM in applications requiring modulation of power or signal.
