# ESP Hardware Abstraction Layer for LEDC Peripheral
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> This component is currently in beta. Its API, behavior, and compatibility may change at any time and without notice; backward compatibility is not guaranteed. Use caution when integrating into production systems.
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
The `esp_hal_ledc` component provides a **Hardware Abstraction Layer** for the LEDC (LED PWM Controller) peripheral across all ESP-IDF supported targets.
|
|
|
|
## Architecture
|
|
|
|
The LEDC HAL is structured in two main sub-layers:
|
|
|
|
1. **HAL Layer (Upper)**: Defines the operational steps and data structures required to control LEDC (e.g., timer/channel configuration, duty updates, fade and low-power helpers).
|
|
2. **Low-Level Layer (Bottom)**: Serves as a translation layer between the HAL and the register files defined in the `soc` component, handling target-specific register configurations.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- Multi-timer and multi-channel PWM generation
|
|
- High-speed and low-speed modes (on supported chips)
|
|
- Duty cycle setting and smooth fading
|
|
- Timer resolution and frequency configuration
|
|
- Interrupt-driven operations
|
|
- Low-power helpers (on supported chips)
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
The HAL functions primarily serve ESP-IDF peripheral drivers such as `esp_driver_ledc`.
|
|
|
|
Advanced developers can use these interfaces directly when implementing custom drivers, with the understanding that API stability is not guaranteed.
|
|
|
|
## Dependencies
|
|
|
|
- `soc`: Provides chip-specific register definitions
|
|
- `hal`: Core hardware abstraction utilities and macros
