    PWM LED driver · de5c9ede
    David Brownell 提交于
    This is a LED driver using the PWM on newer SOCs from Atmel; brightness is
    controlled by changing the PWM duty cycle.  So for example if you've set up
    two leds labeled "pwm0" and "pwm1":
    
    	echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness	# off (0%)
    	echo 80 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness
    	echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness	# on (100%)
    
    Note that "brightness" here isn't linear; maybe that should change.  Going
    from 4 to 8 probably doubles perceived brightness, while 244 to 248 is
    imperceptible.
    
    This is mostly intended to be a simple example of PWM, although it's
    realistic since LCD backlights are often driven with PWM to conserve
    battery power (and offer brightness options).
