Jul 2, 2021 at 19:15 comment added rdtsc I bet there is more than just windings and a commutator inside that fan. I suggest skipping this altogether, and using a 3-wire fan with built-in PWM control.
Jul 2, 2021 at 18:47 comment added Deron Felix Motor's DC resistance about 60Ohms .. The driving transistor should handle up to 600mA .. The Motor's current doesn't exceed 200 mA .. It all works in On/Off mode but not in PWM with much lower currents !!!

Jul 2, 2021 at 18:42 comment added Transistor What is the motor's DC resistance? Did you work out the startup current?
