 //| PWMOut can be used to output a PWM signal on a given pin.
 //|
-//| .. class:: PWMOut(pin, duty=0, frequency=500, variable_frequency=False)
+//| .. class:: PWMOut(pin, duty_cycle=0, frequency=500, variable_frequency=False)
 //|
 //|   Create a PWM object associated with the given pin. This allows you to
 //|   write PWM signals out on the given pin. Frequency is fixed after init
 //|   unless `variable_frequency` is True.
 //|
+//|   .. note:: When ``variable_frequency`` is True, further PWM outputs may be
+//|     limited because it may take more internal resources to be flexible. So,
+//|     when outputting both fixed and flexible frequency signals construct the
+//|     fixed outputs first.
+//|
 //|   :param ~microcontroller.Pin pin: The pin to output to
 //|   :param int duty: The fraction of each pulse which is high. 16-bit
 //|   :param int frequency: The target frequency in Hertz (32-bit)
 //|   :param bool variable_frequency: True if the frequency will change over time
 //|
-//|   Example usage::
+//|   Simple LED fade::
 //|
 //|     import nativeio
 //|     import board
 //|
 //|     with nativeio.PWMOut(board.D13) as pwm:     # output on D13
-//|       pwm.duty_cycle = 2 ** 15                  # Cycles the pin with 50% duty cycle (half of 2 ** 16)
+//|       pwm.duty_cycle = 2 ** 15                  # Cycles the pin with 50% duty cycle (half of 2 ** 16) at the default 500hz
+//|
+//|   PWM at specific frequency (servos and motors)::
+//|
+//|     import nativeio
+//|     import board
+//|
+//|     with nativeio.PWMOut(board.D13, frequency=50) as pwm:
+//|       pwm.duty_cycle = 2 ** 15                  # Cycles the pin with 50% duty cycle (half of 2 ** 16) at 50hz
+//|
+//|   Variable frequency (usually tones)::
+//|
+//|     import nativeio
+//|     import board
+//|     import time
+//|
+//|     with nativeio.PWMOut(board.D13, duty_cycle=2 ** 15, frequency=440, variable_frequency=True) as pwm:
+//|       time.sleep(0.2)
+//|       pwm.frequency = 880
+//|       time.sleep(0.1)
