 This provides a relatively smooth analog approximation to a variable value using an on-off solenoid and a digital output from the ECU.  Digital outputs and simple solenoid air valves are much less expensive than analog alternatives and provide reasonable approximations. This provides a relatively smooth analog approximation to a variable value using an on-off solenoid and a digital output from the ECU.  Digital outputs and simple solenoid air valves are much less expensive than analog alternatives and provide reasonable approximations.
