+# PWM Prescalar
+# In general this can be left alone
+# A higher prescalar should be lower power usage (less switching)
+# However, flickering may be noticeable.
+#
+# Here's a calculation table valid at a 72 MHz system clock
+# Prescalars range from 0 to 7 (1 to 128)
+# 0 -      72 MHz - Highest power usage/best result
+# 1 -      36 MHz
+# 2 -      18 MHz
+# 3 -       9 MHz - Slightly visible flicker (peripheral vision)
+# 4 -   4 500 kHz - Visible flickering
+# 5 -   2 250 kHz
+# 6 -   1 125 kHz
+# 7 - 562 500  Hz
