New to ASM need help with PWN on 16F627 16 Years Ago by alias_neo Hey guys, I'm looking to make some pulsing LEDs and I believe PWM is the way to do it, I'm new to ASM and don't really know how it works. Datasheet is like reading chinese to me. Could anyone please help me out with how to get started? Re: New to ASM need help with PWN on 16F627 16 Years Ago by Colin Mac Well, If you don't want to start with asm, you could use BASIC. You don't need PWM if you just want to turn LEDs on and off. Any fixed square wave will do it. In other words, just toggle the pins. There's a free version of the Swordfish compiler you could use if you want to get started in basic.
