Dimming LED Program with RP HAL

rp-hal is an Embedded-HAL for RP series microcontrollers, and can be used as an alternative to the Embassy framework for pico.

This example code is taken from rp235x-hal repo (It also includes additional examples beyond just the blink examples):

“https://github.com/rp-rs/rp-hal/tree/main/rp235x-hal-examples”

The main code

use embedded_hal::delay::DelayNs;
use hal::block::ImageDef;
use rp235x_hal as hal;

// Traig for PWM
use embedded_hal::pwm::SetDutyCycle;

//Panic Handler
use panic_probe as _;
// Defmt Logging
use defmt_rtt as _;

/// Tell the Boot ROM about our application

/// External high-speed crystal on the Raspberry Pi Pico 2 board is 12 MHz.
/// Adjust if your board has a different frequency
const XTAL_FREQ_HZ: u32 = 12_000_000u32;

/// The minimum PWM value (i.e. LED brightness) we want
const LOW: u16 = 0;

/// The maximum PWM value (i.e. LED brightness) we want
const HIGH: u16 = 25000;

Clone the existing project

You can clone the blinky project I created and navigate to the led-dimming folder to run this version of the blink program:

git clone https://github.com/ImplFerris/pico2-rp-projects
cd pico2-projects/led-dimming
