Hello Everyone
I'm trying to control the brightness of an LED connected to pin RB1 using PWM PIC18F45K80. I have already read through the datasheet, but I'm facing some difficulties in configuring the PWM module correctly. I followed this link https://circuitdigest.com/microcontroller-projects/pic-microcontroller-pic16f877a-pwm-tutorial for guidance, but I'm still encountering issues.
I am looking for help in configuring the PWM module and writing code to gradually change the LED's brightness. Specifically, I need guidance on setting up the PWM period, duty cycle, and initializing the necessary registers.
Here's what I've done so far:
If anyone could provide step-by-step instructions, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your help!
