I've looked and looked and can't find anything that seems to do what I am trying to do. I'm trying to look for a way to fade/pulse an LED. Many many people suggested using PWM and a micro. That's what initially got me interested in learning about them - however I can't find a single example to pulse/fade using PWM and I am completely lost.
I've used the **broken link removed** in the past, and the effect works great. I'm so frustrated, I've throught about trying to get it to work on 5v and just triggering it with the pic. But, that tends to defeat the point.
Anyway, can anyone point me to anything that would get me going in the right direction with PWM? Most basic PWM code examples I see are using C or Basic, not ASM, and generally don't come with any real background and seem to be oriented to motors.
I tried searching the forum, but nobody's looked at the search term issue (it's 3 characters and won't search for it). I've searched on PicList but there really wasn't anything that was cohesive or very clear (is it just me or is that site a mess?). I look at the " but it's for robots/motors.
Apologies if I'm missing the boat on this, maybe I'm making it more complicated than it needs to be. I really appreciate the help and suggestions everyone shares.
