PWM Fan Speed Controller 5V/12V 4-Pin Type-C Digital Temp Module
Smart PWM Fan Speed Controller — Precise Temperature-Based Fan Management
Take full control of your cooling setup with this intelligent 5V/12V 4-Pin PWM Fan Speed Controller. Powered via a convenient Type-C interface, this compact module automatically adjusts fan speed based on real-time temperature readings — keeping your PC, aquarium, greenhouse, or server room running at the ideal temperature without any manual intervention.
Key Features
- Plug-and-Play Type-C Power: Powered directly from a phone charger or power bank — no additional power source required.
- Smooth Linear PWM Control: Automatically adjusts the PWM duty cycle from 10% to 100% as temperature rises, delivering gradual and quiet fan speed transitions.
- HD Digital Display: One-click toggle between real-time temperature and current fan RPM readings for instant visibility of your system's status.
- Wide Compatibility: Works with all standard 4-wire PWM fans — ideal for PC builds, motor cooling, server rooms, greenhouses, and aquarium setups.
- NTC Temperature Probe Included: The NTC10K3950B probe (30cm cable) delivers accurate readings across a wide range of -25°C to 120°C.
- Encoder Adjustment: Simple, precise rotary encoder lets you fine-tune temperature thresholds and recovery ranges with ease.
- Custom Output Frequency: Default 25KHz PWM output frequency with support for custom settings to match your specific fan requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What fans are compatible with this PWM fan speed controller?
A: This module is compatible with standard 4-wire (4-pin) PWM fans commonly used in PC cases, servers, greenhouses, and aquarium setups. It supports both 5V and 12V fan configurations depending on the power source used.
Q: Do I need a special power supply to use this controller?
A: No special power supply is needed. The module is powered via a standard Type-C interface — any USB-C phone charger or power bank can supply power. For 12V operation, you can connect via the onboard terminal.
Q: How does the automatic temperature-based speed control work?
A: You set a low (L) and high (H) temperature threshold using the rotary encoder. When the ambient temperature — measured by the included NTC probe — rises above the low threshold, the controller begins linearly increasing the PWM duty cycle (fan speed) from 10% up to 100% as the temperature approaches the high threshold. This ensures smooth, quiet, and efficient cooling automation.
Q: Can I monitor fan speed and temperature at the same time?
A: The HD digital display shows either real-time temperature or current fan RPM. You can toggle between these two views with a single button press, giving you full visibility of your system's operating status at a glance.
