+### AW20216 :id=aw20216
+There is basic support for addressable RGB matrix lighting with the SPI AW20216 RGB controller. To enable it, add this to your `rules.mk`:
+
+```makefile
+RGB_MATRIX_ENABLE = yes
+RGB_MATRIX_DRIVER = AW20216
+```
+
+You can use up to 2 AW20216 IC's. Do not specify `DRIVER_<N>_xxx` defines for IC's that are not present on your keyboard. You can define the following items in `config.h`:
+
+| Variable | Description | Default |
+|----------|-------------|---------|
+| `DRIVER_1_CS` | (Required) MCU pin connected to first RGB driver chip select line | B13 |
+| `DRIVER_2_CS` | (Optional) MCU pin connected to second RGB driver chip select line | |
+| `DRIVER_1_EN` | (Required) MCU pin connected to first RGB driver hardware enable line | C13 |
+| `DRIVER_2_EN` | (Optional) MCU pin connected to second RGB driver hardware enable line | |
+| `DRIVER_1_LED_TOTAL` | (Required) How many RGB lights are connected to first RGB driver | |
+| `DRIVER_2_LED_TOTAL` | (Optional) How many RGB lights are connected to second RGB driver | |
+| `DRIVER_COUNT` | (Required) How many RGB driver IC's are present | |
+| `DRIVER_LED_TOTAL` | (Required) How many RGB lights are present across all drivers | |
+| `AW_SCALING_MAX` | (Optional) LED current scaling value (0-255, higher values mean LED is brighter at full PWM) | 150 |
+| `AW_GLOBAL_CURRENT_MAX` | (Optional) Driver global current limit (0-255, higher values means the driver may consume more power) | 150 |
+| `AW_SPI_DIVISOR` | (Optional) Clock divisor for SPI communication (powers of 2, smaller numbers means faster communication, should not be less than 4) | 4 |
+
+Here is an example using 2 drivers.
+
+```c
+#define DRIVER_1_CS B13
+#define DRIVER_2_CS B14
+// Hardware enable lines may be connected to the same pin
+#define DRIVER_1_EN C13
+#define DRIVER_2_EN C13
+
+#define DRIVER_COUNT 2
+#define DRIVER_1_LED_TOTAL 66
+#define DRIVER_2_LED_TOTAL 32
+#define DRIVER_LED_TOTAL (DRIVER_1_LED_TOTAL + DRIVER_2_LED_TOTAL)
+```
+
+!> Note the parentheses, this is so when `DRIVER_LED_TOTAL` is used in code and expanded, the values are added together before any additional math is applied to them. As an example, `rand() % (DRIVER_1_LED_TOTAL + DRIVER_2_LED_TOTAL)` will give very different results than `rand() % DRIVER_1_LED_TOTAL + DRIVER_2_LED_TOTAL`.
+
+Define these arrays listing all the LEDs in your `<keyboard>.c`:
+
+```c
+const aw_led g_aw_leds[DRIVER_LED_TOTAL] = {
+/* Each AW20216 channel is controlled by a register at some offset between 0x00
+ * and 0xD7 inclusive.
+ * See drivers/awinic/aw20216.h for the mapping between register offsets and
+ * driver pin locations.
+ * driver
+ * | R location
+ * | | G location
+ * | | | B location
+ * | | | | */

+ { 0, CS7_SW1, CS8_SW1, CS9_SW1 },
+ { 0, CS10_SW1, CS11_SW1, CS12_SW1 },
+ { 0, CS13_SW1, CS14_SW1, CS15_SW1 },
+ ...
+ { 1, CS1_SW1, CS2_SW1, CS3_SW1 },
+ { 1, CS13_SW1, CS14_SW1, CS15_SW1 },
+ { 1, CS16_SW1, CS17_SW1, CS18_SW1 },

+ ...
+};
