[tpic6c595] I tried PWM, but it is not working, or I don't know how to do it! How can i put a transistor to control brightness of the LEDS?

[image] fabio_arduino: I tried PWM, but it is not working Please post your testy sketch, using code tags when you do

#include <NTPClient.h> #include <WiFiUdp.h> #include <ESP8266WiFi.h> // Pin definitions for TPIC6C595 #define DATA_PIN D2 #define CLOCK_PIN D5 #define LATCH_PIN D1 byte get7SegmentEncoding(int digit); // Timekeeping Variables WiFiUDP ntpUDP; const long utcOffsetInSeconds = -3*3600; //Set UTC for…

[image] fabio_arduino: ChatGPT is dumb! No sh**! One easy way to do this is by replacing the 595 with a TM1637 7-segment LED driver. This has a dimming option that's convenient to use. The TM1652 has two dimming functions that can be combined for more dimming resolution.

[image] fabio_arduino: I tried PWM, but it is not working, I checked your code but could find no sign of PWM, so maybe you could explain how you think it works? [image] fabio_arduino: How can i put a transistor to control brightness of the LEDS? With the driver chips you are using, yo…

I connected the G Active Low to the D4 pin PWM Pin of the ESP8266 with 100nF ceramic capacitor to the GND It Worked like so....... also i asked ChatGPT to give me the code and they gave me this code: #define PWM_PIN D4 // Define D4 as the PWM pin void setup() { pinMode(PWM_PIN, OUTPUT); // S…
