analog Set Period
Use this time period for servo commands and other PWM signals.
pins.A1.analogSetPeriod(20000)With Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), a pulse signal is sent regularly, many times a second. How many times a pulse is sent in each second decides what period it has. If a pwm signal is sent 50 times a second, then its period is 1/20th of a second which is 20 milliseconds.
You use microseconds for the amount of time you set your pwm signal period. One second is a million microseconds and 1 millisecond is 1000 microseconds.
Parameters
- period: a number that is the period for the pulse signal sent at the pin.
Example
Set the period for a PWM signal to 20 milliseconds.
