When operating at the extremes you have some flexibility in adjusting duty cycle and forward current limit. For example if the normal continuous forward current for an LED is 20 mA, you may be able to drive 100 mA through it with a 20% duty cycle, for a similar brightness effect. Much like the definition of horsepower (550 ft-lbs./sec), not all combinations of forward current and duty cycle are possible. Some experimentation will be required since brightness tends to be highly subjective.it's almost a rule d/s independent ... a random pick https://www.cree.com/led-components/media/documents/C503B-BCS-BCN-GCS-GCN-1094.pdf Pg.2 (Top of the page Note1)
the question is simply : ? would the 1/10 duty 10 digit display flicker too heavy to be readable
(i can test it out quick - just wanted to know if there is a point to try such test ...)
Flicker would be related to the frequency of the multiplex more than the duty cycle.would the 1/10 duty 10 digit display flicker too heavy to be readable
