<p class='vspace'></p><h2>analogWrite()</h2>
 | 
						|
<h4>Description</h4>
 | 
						|
<p>Writes an analog value (<a class='wikilink' href='http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/PWM'>PWM wave</a>) to a pin.  Can be used to light a LED at varying brightnesses or drive a motor at various speeds.  After a call to <strong>analogWrite()</strong>, the pin will generate a steady square wave of the specified duty cycle until the next call to <strong>analogWrite()</strong> (or a call to <strong>digitalRead()</strong> or <strong>digitalWrite()</strong> on the same pin).  The frequency of the PWM signal is approximately 490 Hz.
 | 
						|
</p>
 | 
						|
<p class='vspace'></p><p>On newer Arduino boards (including the Mini and BT) with the <span class='wikiword'>ATmega168</span> chip, this function works on pins 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, and 11.  Older USB and serial Arduino boards with an <span class='wikiword'>ATmega8</span> only support analogWrite() on pins 9, 10, and 11.

						|
</p>
 | 
						|
<p class='vspace'></p><h4>Syntax</h4>
 | 
						|
<p>analogWrite(pin, value)
 | 
						|
</p>
 | 
						|
<p class='vspace'></p><h4>Parameters</h4>
 | 
						|
<p>pin: the pin to write to.  
 | 
						|
</p>
 | 
						|
<p class='vspace'></p><p>value: the duty cycle: between 0 (always off) and 255 (always on).
 | 
						|
</p>
 | 
						|
<p class='vspace'></p><h4>Returns</h4>
 | 
						|
<p>nothing
 | 
						|
</p>
 | 
						|
<p class='vspace'></p><h4>Notes and Known Issues</h4>
 | 
						|
<p>You do not need to call pinMode() to set the pin as an output before calling analogWrite().
 | 
						|
</p>
 | 
						|
<p class='vspace'></p><p>The PWM outputs generated on pins 5 and 6 will have higher-than-expected duty cycles.  This is because of interactions with the millis() and delay() functions, which share the same internal timer used to generate those PWM outputs.
 | 
						|
</p>
 | 
						|
<p class='vspace'></p><h4>Example</h4>
 | 
						|
<p>Sets the output to the LED proportional to the value read from the potentiometer.
 | 
						|
</p>
 | 
						|
<p class='vspace'></p><pre> 
 | 
						|
int ledPin = 9;      // LED connected to digital pin 9
 | 
						|
int analogPin = 3;   // potentiometer connected to analog pin 3
 | 
						|
int val = 0;         // variable to store the read value
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
void setup()
 | 
						|
{
 | 
						|
  pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);   // sets the pin as output
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
void loop()
 | 
						|
{
 | 
						|
  val = analogRead(analogPin);   // read the input pin
 | 
						|
  analogWrite(ledPin, val / 4);  // analogRead values go from 0 to 1023, analogWrite values from 0 to 255
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
</pre>
