Usage

private Pca9685 pca9685;

public override Task Initialize()
{
    Resolver.Log.Info("Initialize...");
    var i2CBus = Device.CreateI2cBus(I2cBusSpeed.FastPlus);

    pca9685 = new Pca9685(i2CBus, new Meadow.Units.Frequency(50, Meadow.Units.Frequency.UnitType.Hertz), (byte)Pca9685.Addresses.Default);

    return base.Initialize();
}

public override Task Run()
{
    var port0 = pca9685.CreatePwmPort(pca9685.Pins.LED0, 0.05f);
    var port7 = pca9685.CreatePwmPort(pca9685.Pins.LED7);

    port0.Start();
