Particle Xenon PWM

user112691

Hi

I was just curious as to whether or not there is a specific reason the Xenon's PWM capabilities are not available with NCS/Zephyr.  Is there a hard limitation or is this just functionality that hasn't been fleshed out yet? 

Thanks

    Hi

    First, I should mention that the nRF Connect SDK is based on the Zephyr project. And it includes a fork of the Zephyr project.
    So if the Particle Xenon is included in the Zephyr project, you can use it in the nRF Connect SDK as well.

    However, Nordic Semiconductor do not support or maintain the Particle Xenon board as far as I know.
    If you want help with this, you should contact either the Zephyr Project or Particle.

    That being said, as long as the Particle Xenon hardware supports PWM, you should be able to configure it to work.
    Zephyr and the nRF Connect SDK supports adding custom boards and locally editing existing boards.

    If you want to do this, I suggest you have a look at Custom Board, Devicetree and SOC Definitions, and for some in-depth maybe Devicetree Guide.
    The Xenon is equipped with a nRF52840, I would also advise you to compare the Particle Xenon board files and the nRF52840DK board files.
