  • Tutorial to connect PWM to any physical pin.

    With the flexibility of an FPGA your PWM outputs don’t need to be restricted to a specific pin. In fact, Wings are a snap to develop because they aren’t constrained by the board they connect to. With this freedom it is possible to write a sketch that uses a PWM on any pin! This tutorial…
