Backlight Driver Configuration

The Backlight Driver Enable signal is connected to the FT81x backlight control pin. This signal is controlled by two

registers: REG_PWM_HZ and REG_PWM_DUTY. REG_PWM_HZ specifies the PWM output frequency – the range

available on the FT81x is 250 to 10000Hz, however the on-board backlight driver’s max PWM frequency is 1000Hz.

Therefore, for proper use of the PWM function available on this module, the PWM frequency should not exceed 1000Hz.

REG_PWM_DUTY specifies the duty cycle – the range is 0 to 128. A value of 0 turns the backlight completely off, while a

value of 128 provides maximum backlight brightness.

For the above register definitions, please refer to pages 80-81 of the official FT81x Series Programmers Guide:
