Overview
The FTM Example project is a demonstration program that uses the KSDK software to generate a square pulse PWM to control the LED brightness.
- FTM generates a PWM with the increasing and decreasing duty cycle.
- LED brightness is increasing and then dimming. This is a continuous process.
Supported Platforms
These Freescale Freedom development platforms and Tower System modules are supported by the FTM example.
- FRDM-K22F
- FRDM-KW24
- TWR-K21D50M
- TWR-K21F120M
- TWR-K22F120M
- TWR-K24F120M
- TWR-K60D100M
- TWR-K64F120M
- TWR-K65F180M
- TWR-KV10Z32
- TWR-KV31F120M
- TWR-KV46F150M

Getting Started
Hardware settings
The FTM Example project does not call for any special hardware configurations. Although not required, the recommendation is to leave the development board's jumper settings and configurations in default state when running this example.
Prepare the example
- Connect a USB cable between the PC host and the OpenSDA USB port on the board.
- Open a serial terminal with these settings:
- 115200 baud rate
- 8 data bits
- No parity
- One stop bit
- No flow control
- Download the program to the target board.
- Either press the reset button on your board or launch the debugger in your IDE to begin running the example.
Run the example
These instructions are displayed/shown on the terminal window:

After that, the LED brightness is increasing and then dimming. This is a continuous process.
