  * \brief       This example demonstrates how to control the speed of motor by using the PWM units of the TLE94112 shield
  * \details
- * Attaching a potentiometer on an analog input pin, which will than control the
- * setting of the TLE94112 internal PWM unit and therefore the speed of the motor.
+ * Ramping the speed of the motor up and down by using PWM signals.
  * The TLE94112 has three separate PWM units which can be attached to any combination
  * of halfbridges. So try out to change the TLE_PWM1 to TLE_PWM2 or TLE_PWM3 to see this.
  * You can change the motor direction by changing the HIGH/LOW status of the halfbridges
