Problems solved by technology

When the control voltage is very low, it is easy to be interfered by external noise and flicker occurs; the other is to control the output signal by changing the duty cycle of PWM_Dim to achieve the purpose of modulating the output LED current, thereby controlling the brightness of the LED. The relationship between current value and PWM, PWM frequency is easy to cause flicker, when the control voltage is very low, it is also easy to be interfered by external noise, flickering
