servo style PWM gives you a pulse width between 0.67 and 2.33 ms, repeated every 5, 10, or 20ms. You have a very limited range of duty cycles and frequencies. It's suitable for driving a servo or a speed controller, but not much else.

The digital output PWM lets you set a duty cycle between 0-100% and a frequency from 0.6hz to 19khz.
