PWM LED DRIVERS
Table 7:
DUTY#[ ] PWM Frequency Setting
The GPIO3, the GPIO4, the GPIO5, and the GPIO6
are configured as PWM LED drivers, which could
support up to 6mA current with programmable
frequency and duty cycle. Set PWM#EN[ ] bit to “1”
to enable PWM function of GPIO#.

PWM Frequence Selection
Each LED driver may be independently
programmed to a different frequency by writing to
the GPIO’s FRE[2:0] register via the I2C serial
interface as shown in Table 6.
