ESP32 LED PWM Controller
The ESP32 has a LED PWM controller with 16 independent channels that can be configured to generate PWM signals with different properties.
Here’s the steps you’ll have to follow to dim an LED with PWM using the Arduino IDE:
1. First, you need to choose a PWM channel. There are 16 channels from 0 to 15.
2. Then, you need to set the PWM signal frequency. For an LED, a frequency of 5000 Hz is fine to use.
3. You also need to set the signal’s duty cycle resolution: you have resolutions from 1 to 16 bits. We’ll use 8-bit resolution, which means you can control the LED brightness using a value from 0 to 255.
4. Next, you need to specify to which GPIO or GPIOs the signal will appear upon. For that you’ll use the following function:
ledcAttachPin(GPIO, channel)This function accepts two arguments. The first is the GPIO that will output the signal, and the second is the channel that will generate the signal.
5. Finally, to control the LED brightness using PWM, you use the following function:
ledcWrite(channel, dutycycle)This function accepts as arguments the channel that is generating the PWM signal, and the duty cycle.
Dimming an LED
Let’s see a simple example to see how to use the ESP32 LED PWM controller using the Arduino IDE.
Schematic
Wire an LED to your ESP32 as in the following schematic diagram. The LED should be connected to GPIO 16.
(This schematic uses the ESP32 DEVKIT V1 module version with 30 GPIOs – if you’re using another model, please check the pinout for the board you’re using.)
Note: you can use any pin you want, as long as it can act as an output. All pins that can act as outputs can be used as PWM pins. For more information about the ESP32 GPIOs, read: ESP32 Pinout Reference: Which GPIO pins should you use?
Code
Open your Arduino IDE and copy the following code.
// the number of the LED pin
const int ledPin = 16; // 16 corresponds to GPIO16
// setting PWM properties
const int freq = 5000;
const int ledChannel = 0;
const int resolution = 8;
void setup(){
// configure LED PWM functionalitites
ledcSetup(ledChannel, freq, resolution);
// attach the channel to the GPIO to be controlled
ledcAttachPin(ledPin, ledChannel);
}
void loop(){
// increase the LED brightness
for(int dutyCycle = 0; dutyCycle <= 255; dutyCycle++){
// changing the LED brightness with PWM
ledcWrite(ledChannel, dutyCycle);
delay(15);
}
// decrease the LED brightness
for(int dutyCycle = 255; dutyCycle >= 0; dutyCycle--){
// changing the LED brightness with PWM
ledcWrite(ledChannel, dutyCycle);
delay(15);
}
}
You start by defining the pin the LED is attached to. In this case the LED is attached to GPIO 16.
const int ledPin = 16; // 16 corresponds to GPIO16Then, you set the PWM signal properties. You define a frequency of 5000 Hz, choose channel 0 to generate the signal, and set a resolution of 8 bits. You can choose other properties, different than these, to generate different PWM signals.
const int freq = 5000;
const int ledChannel = 0;
const int resolution = 8;In the setup(), you need to configure LED PWM with the properties you’ve defined earlier by using the ledcSetup() function that accepts as arguments, the ledChannel, the frequency, and the resolution, as follows:
ledcSetup(ledChannel, freq, resolution);Next, you need to choose the GPIO you’ll get the signal from. For that use the ledcAttachPin() function that accepts as arguments the GPIO where you want to get the signal, and the channel that is generating the signal. In this example, we’ll get the signal in the ledPin GPIO, that corresponds to GPIO 16. The channel that generates the signal is the ledChannel, that corresponds to channel 0.
ledcAttachPin(ledPin, ledChannel);In the loop, you’ll vary the duty cycle between 0 and 255 to increase the LED brightness.
for(int dutyCycle = 0; dutyCycle <= 255; dutyCycle++){
// changing the LED brightness with PWM
ledcWrite(ledChannel, dutyCycle);
delay(15);
}And then, between 255 and 0 to decrease the brightness.
for(int dutyCycle = 255; dutyCycle >= 0; dutyCycle--){
// changing the LED brightness with PWM
ledcWrite(ledChannel, dutyCycle);
delay(15);
}To set the brightness of the LED, you just need to use the ledcWrite() function that accepts as arguments the channel that is generating the signal, and the duty cycle.
ledcWrite(ledChannel, dutyCycle);As we’re using 8-bit resolution, the duty cycle will be controlled using a value from 0 to 255. Note that in the ledcWrite() function we use the channel that is generating the signal, and not the GPIO.
Testing the Example
Upload the code to your ESP32. Make sure you have the right board and COM port selected. Look at your circuit. You should have a dimmer LED that increases and decreases brightness.
Getting the Same Signal on Different GPIOs
You can get the same signal from the same channel in different GPIOs. To achieve that, you just need to attach those GPIOs to the same channel on the setup().
Let’s modify the previous example to dim 3 LEDs using the same PWM signal from the same channel.
Schematic
Add two more LEDs to your circuit by following the next schematic diagram:
(This schematic uses the ESP32 DEVKIT V1 module version with 30 GPIOs – if you’re using another model, please check the pinout for the board you’re using.)
Code
Copy the following code to your Arduino IDE.
// the number of the LED pin
const int ledPin = 16; // 16 corresponds to GPIO16
const int ledPin2 = 17; // 17 corresponds to GPIO17
const int ledPin3 = 5; // 5 corresponds to GPIO5
// setting PWM properties
const int freq = 5000;
const int ledChannel = 0;
const int resolution = 8;
void setup(){
// configure LED PWM functionalitites
ledcSetup(ledChannel, freq, resolution);
// attach the channel to the GPIO to be controlled
ledcAttachPin(ledPin, ledChannel);
ledcAttachPin(ledPin2, ledChannel);
ledcAttachPin(ledPin3, ledChannel);
}
void loop(){
// increase the LED brightness
for(int dutyCycle = 0; dutyCycle <= 255; dutyCycle++){
// changing the LED brightness with PWM
ledcWrite(ledChannel, dutyCycle);
delay(15);
}
// decrease the LED brightness
for(int dutyCycle = 255; dutyCycle >= 0; dutyCycle--){
// changing the LED brightness with PWM
ledcWrite(ledChannel, dutyCycle);
delay(15);
}
}
This is the same code as the previous one but with some modifications. We’ve defined two more variables for two new LEDs, that refer to GPIO 17 and GPIO 5.
const int ledPin2 = 17; // 17 corresponds to GPIO17
const int ledPin3 = 5; // 5 corresponds to GPIO5Then, in the setup(), we’ve added the following lines to assign both GPIOs to channel 0. This means that we’ll get the same signal, that is being generated on channel 0, on both GPIOs.
ledcAttachPin(ledPin2, ledChannel);
ledcAttachPin(ledPin3, ledChannel);Testing the Project
Upload the new sketch to your ESP32. Make sure you have the right board and COM port selected. Now, take a look at your circuit:
All GPIOs are outputting the same PWM signal. So, all three LEDs increase and decrease the brightness simultaneously, resulting in a synchronized effect.
Wrapping Up
In summary, in this post you’ve learned how to use the LED PWM controller of the ESP32 with the Arduino IDE to dim an LED. The concepts learned can be used to control other outputs with PWM by setting the right properties to the signal.

Hi,
This is a good tutorial for PWM or analog output, however could you try my analogWrite implementation for ESP?
Please give it a shout here https://github.com/ERROPiX/ESP32_AnalogWrite
Thank you
Hi.
Thank you for sharing that library.
I’ll give it a try, and update the article to include your solution.
Regards,
Sara 🙂
Obrigado pelo biblioteca, me ajudou muito em meus projetos.
Trying to figure out where the ledxxxxx functions are defined. Don’t see any #include x.h in the codes
Hi dale.
Those functions are part of the ESP32 core library for the Arduino IDE by default.
So, once you have ESP32 installed on Arduino IDE, you don’t need to include anything else in your code to use those functions.
Regards,
Sara 🙂
Good & simple
Thanks 🙂
Hi, I’m trying to connect LED PWM and servo. PWM works perfect, but when I write
myservo.attach(33); to setup PWM stops working. Using
https://randomnerdtutorials.com/esp32-servo-motor-web-server-arduino-ide/
Any idea?
Hi Lucasz.
Can you provide more details?
Are you getting any error on the serial monitor?
Regards,
Sara
Hi Sara,
“All GPIOs are outputting the same PWM signal. So, all three LEDs increase and decrease the brightness simultaneously, resulting in a synchronized effect.”
Is itpossible to setup the different channels with different frequency and PWM in order to control the LED brightness separately?
Hi.
Yes, you can do that.
However, please note that 0 and 1 will share the same frequency, as well as channels 2 and 3, 5 and 5. See this discussion that might be helpful: https://rntlab.com/question/esp32-pwm-frequency-selection/
Regards,
Sara
You can also use macros when defining constants.
So instead of const int ledPin = 16, you can use:
#define LEDPIN 16
it saves memory
const int ledPin = 16
Will not actually consume any RAM: the compiler knows there is no reason to create a variable in RAM, so it’ll stay out of RAM (it will be stored in flash memory).
#define ledPin 16
Can actually become a bad practice… Why?
Because it can lead to very hard to find bugs.
Think about this mistake:
#define ledPin 16;
The “text-replace” nature of
#definecan mislead you with a stray semicolon or other unexpected replace…Apart from that, concerning the desired light effect on a LED, here is a simple idea to give the impression that it breathes:
void loop(){
ledcWrite(ledChannel, 128 – 128 * cos(2*PI*(millis() % 2001)/2000));
}
hi
can I have different frequencies for each of 16 pins?
(different PWMs with adjaustble duty cycles and frequencies for all pins)?
Hi.
In theory, that’s possible. You need to create different PWM channels with different frequencies.
However, I’m not sure if in practical terms, the ESP32 can handle all the 16 channels at the same time. You have to experiment to find out.
Regards,
Sara
thank you very much for the reply.
one another question
can we change the frequency of a channel while running the program (with coding in the loop)?
without resetting the esp?
Hi. I never tried that.
But, it should be possible.
Regards,
Sara
I have tried this driving a two tone sounder.
change the frequency with ledcSetup(), and remember to then perform a ledcWrite().
void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
ledcSetup(1, 2048, 8);
ledcWrite(1, 127);
delay(2000);
ledcSetup(1, 4069, 8);
ledcWrite(1, 127);
delay(2000);
}
thank mike . seems works .
I’ve used Arduinos for a long time now but now need to use the ESP32 Devkit. I need to drive 4 motors (same freq for each, but different duty cycle) and I need to drive two or four RC type servos. When I run code for PWM for the BLDC motors, it works fine. If I run code to just position the servos, it works fine. When I try to combine the code, it appears that setting the freq for the PWM messes up the servos. It doesn’t want to give me a 50Hz frame rate. Do you know if there is a conflict between the servo library and the standard PWM functions of the ESP32? I’ve bought two of your courses, but the answer doesn’t seem to be there and I haven’t found anything online yet.
Hi Mark.
Please post your question on the RNTLAB forum. I can help you better there: https://rntlab.com/forum/
Just login with the email you used to buy the courses.

I’m wondering and confounded by how you would set off a second (or more) LED light at a different time, but repeat the same cycle as the first LED? Say, when the first LED begins to decrease brightness, the second LED would start to increase its brightness.
I’ve tried calling a custom function nextLight() within the for loop. Doing that simply stops the first LED’s cycle while the nextLight LED runs fully. It’s wonky. Unintuitive.
const int redLED1=26;
const int redLED2=25;
// setting PWM properties
const int freq=5000; // 5000Hz for our LEDs here
const int freq2=5000;
const int ledChannel=0;
const int ledChannel2=2;
const int resolution=8;
const int resolution2=8;
void setup() {
ledcSetup(ledChannel, freq, resolution);
ledcSetup(ledChannel2,freq2,resolution2);
// attach the channel to the GPIO to be controlled
ledcAttachPin(redLED1, ledChannel);
ledcAttachPin(redLED2, ledChannel2);
Serial.begin(115200);
}
void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
//increase LED brightness channel 1
for(int dutyCycle=0;dutyCycle<=255; dutyCycle++){
// changing the LED brightness with PWM
ledcWrite(ledChannel, dutyCycle);
delay(15);
}
// decrease LED brightness channel 1
for(int dutyCycle=255;dutyCycle>=0;dutyCycle–){
// changing the LED brightness with PWM
if(dutyCycle==250){
nextLight():
}
ledcWrite(ledChannel, dutyCycle);
delay(15);
}
}
void nextLight(){
for(int dutyCycle=0;dutyCycle<=255; dutyCycle++){
// changing the LED brightness with PWM
ledcWrite(ledChannel2, dutyCycle);
delay(15);
}
for(int dutyCycle=255;dutyCycle>=0;dutyCycle–){
// changing the LED brightness with PWM
ledcWrite(ledChannel2, dutyCycle);
delay(15);
}
}
Hi.
Have you considered using tasks?
Read this tutorial: https://randomnerdtutorials.com/esp32-dual-core-arduino-ide/
Regards,
Sara
Did you try this?
ledcWrite(ledChannel1, 255-dutyCycle);
Thank you Sara.
I tried the PWM example as coded in the tutorial and it did not function. I looked at a PinOut of a 30 Pin ESP32 board and found that ADC channel 0 is on the same pin as GP04. I moved the led to GP04, changed the code to reflect the move and the PWM example is now functional. It seems as if ADC channels are tied to specific GPIO’s.
Hi! I haven’t understood the channel that we need to choose. what is it depend on? in your code I have tried to change the channel from 0 to 2 It still worked.
Hi.
You can choose any channel from 0 to 15.

Sara
Hello Sara, I am writing to you from Ecuador, my question is how can I perform a power control of a led using a potentiometer in an MCU Esp 32, thank you very much
Hello Sarah,
I am not sure I understand the nature of the programmability of the LED channels and
I feel confused by this sentence above, “You can get the same signal from the same channel in different GPIOs.”
Might it be,
You can set the same PWM signal to more than one GPIOs.
Is it that you set a GPIO to a channel?
Or are we setting a channel more than once to different GPIOs.
For what it is worth I am on page 304 of your Building Web Server book and am getting a lot of value out of the book! I came here to better understand the LED and PWM system in the ESP32.
Thanks,
Forrest Erickson
Hi Forrest.
What I mean by “You can get the same PWM signal on more than one GPIO” is that you can set the same PWM signal (and the same channel) on more than one GPIO.
In the ESP32, PWM channels produce PWM signals. You then attach those channels to the GPIOs where you want to have the signals. If you want to have the same signals on multiple GPIOs, you don’t need to create multiple PWM channels. You can use the same channel for multiple GPIOs.
For example, it is possible to have the following scenarios:
– PWM channel 1 –> signal on GPIO 23
– PWM channel 1 –> signal on GPIO 22
– PWM channel 1 –> signal on GPIO 21
All GPIOs will have the same PWM signal.
I’m sorry if this is confusing. English is not my native language, and sometimes my sentences seem clear to me, but not so much for others.
Regards,
Sara
Sara,
Thanks for the clarification. You did great. Re: “English is not my native language, and sometimes my sentences seem clear to me, but not so much for others.”
It is my native and I still mangle it.
I still had questions about the independence of the setup of the channels and did some experimenting based on your example code. I have pushed the results of the experiments to my github at: https://github.com/ForrestErickson/PWMExperiments
Bottom line. You cannot program the frequency of channel 0 and 1. The last one you set governs both.
I also experimented with higher frequencies and resolutions and here is a summary of what I found:
// Set Freq: 80KHz 100KHz 200KHz 50KHz
//const int resolution = 8; // Freq became 80.00 100.00 200.00
//const int resolution = 9; // Freq became 80.00 100.0 156.3
const int resolution = 10; // Freq became 78.13 78.13 78.13 50.00
//const int resolution = 11; // Freq became 39.06 39.06 39.06
//const int resolution = 12; // Freq became 19.53 19.53 19.53
Hope this helps visitors.
Should have said, “Bottom line. You cannot INDEPENDENTLY program the frequency of channel 0 and 1.”
Thanks for sharing your results.
It will definitely be useful for our readers.

Sara
Hello Sir/ Mam,
I need help regarding the Motor driver control with esp32 using pwm signals.
I tried with esp32 but both motors are working at a time I need individual pwm control for each motors.
This is my ESP32 code:
//ESP32
// Set the Motor_1 PWM and Direction pin
const int m1_pwm = 16; // 16 corresponds to GPIO16–>ESP32–>RX2
const int m1_dir = 4; // 4 corresponds to GPIO4—->ESP32–>D4
//// Set the Motor_2 PWM and Direction pin
const int m2_pwm = 17; // 17 corresponds to GPIO17–>ESP32–>TX2
const int m2_dir = 5; // 5 corresponds to GPIO4—->ESP32–>D5
// setting PWM properties for motor 1
const int freq_1 = 5000;
const int resolution_1= 8;
const int pwmChannel_1 = 0;
// setting PWM properties for motor 2
const int freq_2 = 5000;
const int resolution_2= 8;
const int pwmChannel_2 = 0;
void setup(){
// configure Motor PWM functionalitites
ledcSetup(pwmChannel_1, freq_1, resolution_1);
ledcSetup(pwmChannel_2, freq_2, resolution_2);
// attach the channel to the GPIO to be controlled
ledcAttachPin(m1_pwm, pwmChannel_1);
ledcAttachPin(m2_pwm, pwmChannel_2);
pinMode(m1_dir,OUTPUT); // Motor 1 direction output pin
pinMode(m2_dir,OUTPUT); // Motor 1 direction output pin
}
void loop(){
digitalWrite(m1_dir,HIGH); // m1 with clock wise direction
ledcWrite(pwmChannel_1, 255); //0 t0 255 value
delay(1000);
digitalWrite(m1_dir,LOW); // m1 with anti clock wise direction
ledcWrite(pwmChannel_1,50);
delay(1000);
ledcWrite(pwmChannel_1,0); //stop the motor 1
delay(1000);
digitalWrite(m2_dir,HIGH); // m2 with clock wise direction
ledcWrite(pwmChannel_2, 20);
delay(1000);
digitalWrite(m2_dir,LOW); // m2 with anti clock wise direction
ledcWrite(pwmChannel_2, 150);
delay(1000);
ledcWrite(pwmChannel_2, 0); //Stop the motor 2
delay(1000);
}
When I run this code both motor are woking at a time There is no sequence of operation.
Arduino Uno Code:
//ARDUINO UNO

pinMode(m2_pwm,OUTPUT);
}
void loop()
{
digitalWrite(m1_dir,HIGH); // m1 with clock wise direction
analogWrite(m1_pwm,255);

Hi.
Change the number of your PWM channel 2.
Instead of:
const int pwmChannel_2 = 0use
const int pwmChannel_2 = 1Regards,

Hola Sara, he generado 2 ondas PWM en diferentes GPIO que varía según un potenciometro como señal analogica de entrada.
Mi consulta es: ¿Se podría desfasar 90 grados las ondas?
Hi.
I don’t know exactly what’s the best way to do that.
The easiest way is to add a delay whose time corresponds to 90 degrees phase (I’m not sure if this works in a practical application).
Alternatively, you can use MCPWM instead that provides functions to set the phase: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-reference/peripherals/mcpwm.html
I hope this helps.

Hi,
I tried passing a potentiometer value which is read on ADC to PWM but it didn’t work. can you walk me through how to do it?
BTW below is the code I wrote:
const int ledPin=16;
const int potPin=4;
const int freq=5000;
const int ledChannel=0;
const int resolution=16;
int dutyCycle=0;
void setup() {
// put your setup code here, to run once:
ledcSetup(ledChannel, freq, resolution);
ledcAttachPin(potPin, ledChannel);
}
void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
dutyCycle=analogRead(potPin);
//dutyCycle=dutyCycle/4;
ledcWrite=(ledChannel, dutyCycle);
}
Hi.
What didn’t work about that?
Regards,
Sara
The ADC value that is saved in an int-type variable named dutyCycle is not accepted as a duty cycle parameter in PWM function
When I use PWM for my LEDs and use small values only, do I still need a resister for the LEDs?
A soros ellenállás a GPIO kimeneti áramának korlátozása miatt fontos, az esp védelmében.
attól hogy csak rövit impulzusokra kapcsolja be a ledet attól még túllépheti a GPIO maximálisan megengedett áramkorlátját, ami a kimenet meghibásodásához vezethet.

Hi!
In your forum ( https://rntlab.com/question/esp32-two-frequency-pwm-output/) you sayed channel 0 and channel 1 are grouped together.
How can I select channel to set different frequencies in different GPIOs?
Espressiv datasheet says from 0 to 15 but I can’t find how they are grouped.
Thank you in advance.
Hi.
Choose channels 0 and 3, for example.
Those are not grouped.
To know which ones are grouped, you have to test them. I remember that those two are independent.
Regards,
Sara
Thank you very much for your answer!
I haven’t an oscilloscope. Is there a simple way to test it without an oscilloscope?
Thank you again!
I will try to connect piezo element with audible frequency and then post the results
Thanks a lot
I connected a piezo element to ground and alternating to GPIOs 16 and 17.
I can hear the same frequence using with channels 0 1 or 2 3. Frequence is different with 0 2, 0 3, 1 3.
I think it could be a good test if you can’t use an oscilloscope.
I uploaded this sketch:
const int ledPin0 = 16;
const int ledPin1 = 17;
const int freq0 = 500;
const int freq1 = 100;
const int ledChannel0 = 1; const int ledChannel1 = 3; //OK
//const int ledChannel0 = 3; const int ledChannel1 = 3; //OK
//const int ledChannel0 = 0; const int ledChannel1 = 3; //OK
// const int ledChannel0 = 0; const int ledChannel1 = 1; //NO it sounds the same frequence
// const int ledChannel0 = 2; const int ledChannel1 = 3; //NO it sounds the same frequence
const int resolution = 8; // dutycycle 128 is 50%
void setup(){
ledcSetup(ledChannel0, freq0, resolution);
ledcSetup(ledChannel1, freq1, resolution);
ledcAttachPin(ledPin0, ledChannel0);
ledcAttachPin(ledPin1, ledChannel1);
} //fine set up
void loop(){
ledcWrite(ledChannel0, 128);
ledcWrite(ledChannel1, 128);
} // fine void loop
hi:
the functions used to control the PWM on the LEDs were unfamiliar for me, but that makes me wonder how I know how many or where I can find all the functions that ESP32 can handle, by any chance do you know where?
Thank you in advance.
https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32
Hi Sara:
thanks for the link, I wonder if there is a link very similar to the arduino page where it tells you in the language reference what functions are available to use when you are programming the arduino board. Is there something similar?
thank you.
