Note (2) If the PWM control duty ratio is less than 10%, there is some possibility that acoustic noise or
backlight flash can be found. And it is also difficult to control the brightness linearity.
Note (3) If PWM control frequency is applied in the range less than 1KHz, the “waterfall” phenomenon on
the screen may be found. To avoid the issue, it’s a suggestion that PWM control frequency should
follow the criterion as below.

The brightness of each primary color (red, green and blue) is based on the 6-bit gray scale data input
for the color. The higher the binary input the brighter the color. The table below provides the assignment
