Note (2) If the PWM control duty ratio is less than 10%, it is 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.
