Hi Steve, The PWM is a generic output since you would need a hardware connection to control the brightness through the backlighting control circuit. You COULD...

Hi Steve, Yes - you would need a hardware connection. We're using an HV9918 chip to drive the backlighting, and it's got a digital input DDIM which shuts off...

Hi I'm pretty sure you don't need to modify any hardware... If you use PWM channel 0, then that affects the brightness from the pulse width and period you set....

Some comments on the PWM period rate: What you're seeing is probably aliasing of the PWM rate and the refresh rate of the display. If you use a 100 Hz PWM and...
