.. highlight:: cpp
.. _lang-pwmwrite:
pwmWrite()
==========
Writes a :ref:`PWM wave <pwm>` to a pin. You can use this to make an
LED get brighter or dimmer, control a servomotor, etc. After a call to
pwmWrite(), the pin will output a steady square wave with the given
duty cycle. You can change the duty cycle later by calling pwmWrite()
again with the same pin and a different duty.
.. FIXME board-specific information
On the Maple, the pins which support PWM are: 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8,
9, 11, 12, 14, 24, 27, and 28.
The Arduino function :ref:`analogWrite() <lang-analogwrite>` is an
alias for ``pwmWrite()``, but it is badly named, and its use is
discouraged.

Example
-------
Sets the output to the LED proportional to the value read from the
potentiometer::
int analogPin = 3; // potentiometer connected to analog pin 3
void setup() {
pinMode(BOARD_LED_PIN, OUTPUT); // sets the LED pin as output
pinMode(analogPin, INPUT_ANALOG); // sets the potentiometer pin as
// analog input
}
void loop() {
int val = analogRead(analogPin); // read the input pin
pwmWrite(BOARD_LED_PIN, val * 16); // analogRead values go from 0
// to 4095, pwmWrite values
// from 0 to 65535, so scale roughly
}
