+pwm command
+===========
+
+Synopsis
+--------
+
+::
+
+ pwm invert <pwm_dev_num> <channel> <polarity> - invert polarity
+ pwm config <pwm_dev_num> <channel> <period_ns> <duty_ns> - config PWM
+ pwm enable <pwm_dev_num> <channel> - enable PWM output
+ pwm disable <pwm_dev_num> <channel> - disable PWM output
+
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+The ``pwm`` command is used to access and configure PWM (Pulse Width Modulation)
+signals. For all subcommands, the following arguments are common:
+
+pwm_dev_num
+ device number
+
+channel
+ channel on chosen device
+
+pwm invert
+----------
+
+The signal's active and inactive states are swapped.
+
+pwm config
+----------
+
+Configure the period and duty cycle in nanoseconds.
+
+pwm enable
+----------
+
+Enable output on the configured device and channel.
+
+pwm disable
+-----------
+
+Disable output on the configured device and channel.
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+Configure device 0 channel 0 to 50 kHz period and 70% duty cycle::
+
+ => pwm config 0 0 20000 14000
+
+Enable output on the configured device and channel::
+
+ => pwm enable 0 0 20000 14000
+
+Disable output on the configured device and channel::
+
+ => pwm disable 0 0 20000 14000
+
+Invert the signal on the configured device and channel::
+
+ => pwm invert 0 0 1
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+The ``pwm`` command is only available if CONFIG_CMD_PWM=y.
+
+Return value
+------------
+
+If the command succeeds, the return value ``$?`` is set to 0. If an error occurs, the
+return value ``$?`` is set to 1.
