analogWriteFrequency(kHz) to analogWriteFrequency(Hz) #184

Closed ltwin8 closed 1 year ago

ltwin8 commented 1 year ago

hello, is it possible to change analogWriteFrequency(kHz) to accept Hz?

to avoid bricking existing code it could be like if value <=64 interpret as kHz, else interpret as Hz

PWM frequencys below 1 kHz would be useful in some cases like driving lighting to avoid high frequency and allow for slower edges (EMI friendlier)

Sorry, but setting arbitrary PWM frequencies is not possible. You can try setting a lower main clock frequency (something lower than the default 16 MHz) and play around with the TCA0.SPLIT.CTRLA register to see what you can achieve.
