Both devices are using some features of the enhanced PWM module. The PIC16 will
operate the CCP module in single output since the CCP2 P2A pin connects directly to
DS4. The PIC18 will operate the CCP module in Full-Bridge mode in order to modulate
P1D on DS3.
Maximum resolution is achieved when the PRx register is set to 0xFF, or rather 255,
the maximum value an 8-bit number can hold.
Below is a scope capture of the PWM signal when the LED is dimly lit. As one can see,
the Period is around ~2 ms, with the pulse width being only few hundred us wide.
