STRUCT PWM_CAPTURE(9)

💖 struct pwm_capture(9) 💖

okay so welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for struct pwm_capture, bestie 🫶. This is the little data holder for PWM capture data, and it’s honestly giving “tiny but iconic.” No cap.

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct pwm_capture — PWM capture data. That’s the whole name-and-description situation, periodt 💅.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Here’s the struct in all its exact glory:

       struct pwm_capture {
           unsigned int period;
           unsigned int duty_cycle;
        };

🧚 Members 🧚

• period — period of the PWM signal (in nanoseconds) ⏱️✨
• duty_cycle — duty cycle of the PWM signal (in nanoseconds) 🎀

Both members are measured in nanoseconds, iykyk. That detail is literally in the labels, bestie.
