30.Dt BCM283X_PWM 4
31.Os
32.Sh NAME
33.Nm bcm283x_pwm
34.Nd bcm283x_pwm - driver for Raspberry Pi 2/3 PWM
35.Sh SYNOPSIS
36.Cd "kldload bcm283x_clkman"
37.Cd "kldload bcm283x_pwm"
38.Sh DESCRIPTION
39The
40.Nm
41driver provides access to the PWM engine on GPIO12 of Raspberry Pi 2 and 3 hardware.
42.Pp
43The PWM hardware is controlled via the
44.Xr sysctl 8
45interface:
46.Bd -literal
47dev.pwm.0.mode: 1
48dev.pwm.0.mode2: 1
49dev.pwm.0.freq: 125000000
50dev.pwm.0.ratio: 2500
51dev.pwm.0.ratio2: 2500
52dev.pwm.0.period: 10000
53dev.pwm.0.period2: 10000
54dev.pwm.0.pwm_freq: 12500
55dev.pwm.0.pwm_freq2: 12500
56.Ed
57.Bl -tag -width ".Va dev.pwm"
58.It Va dev.pwm.0.mode , dev.pwm.0.mode2
59PWM Mode for channels 1 and 2.
60Three modes exist, 0=off, 1=PWM, 2=N/M.
61The N/M mode is a first order delta-sigma mode, which makes a quite
62handy DAC output with a trivial RC lowpass filter.
63.Pp
64.It Va dev.pwm.0.freq
65The input frequency to the PWM hardware in Hz.
66Applies to both channels 1 and 2.
67Minimum frequency is 123 kHz, maximum frequency is 125 MHz.
68.It Va dev.pwm.0.period , dev.pwm.0.period2
69The period length in cycles.
70In PWM mode, the output frequencies will be
71(
72.Va dev.pwm.0.freq
73/
74.Va dev.pwm.period
75) and (
76.Va dev.pwm.0.freq2
77/
78.Va dev.pwm.0.period2
79).
80In N/M mode this is the 'M'.
81.It Va dev.pwm.0.ratio , dev.pwm.0.ratio2
82The "on" period in cycles for PWM channels 1 and 2.
83In PWM mode, to get a 25% dutycycle, set this to 25% of
84.Va dev.pwm.0.period
85or
86.Va dev.pwm.0.period2 ,
87as appropriate.
88In N/M mode this is the 'N'.
89.It Va dev.pwm.0.pwm_freq , dev.pwm.0.pwm_freq2
90The calculated PWM output frequencies in PWM mode, for channels 1 and 2.
91.El
92.Pp
93.Sh NOTES
94Currently the
95.Nm
96driver ignores the 'status="disabled"' flag in the DTB, assuming that
97if you load the driver, you want it to work.
98.Sh SEE ALSO
99.Xr sysctl 8
100.Sh HISTORY
101The
102.Nm
103driver first appeared in
104.Fx 12.0 .
