I purchased an adafruit PWM board that I attached to a RP2 running Win10. https://www.adafruit.com/products/815
I now need some .NET code samples to control the PWMs. Does anyone have any offhand that they don't mind sharing?

Thanks

i guess PWM is not implemented in Win IoT for RPi2 yet.
(except pwm for audio on the 3.5 mm jack, but there you have no control)
[I only give negative feedback]

Windows 10 IoT Core has limitations, awaiting MS to develop further:

Hi,

With latest release it seem RPI supports PWM.

Did you achieve this?

Best regards

IoT support of PWM is irrelevant to the linked Adafruit device. The device generates the PWM itself. What is needed is IoT support of I2C and then for someone to write the code to use I2C to talk to the device.

IoT supports in all UWP languages the below (if you include the IoT extensions)

I2C
SPI
GPIO
UART
