   Did you read Pimoroni's own website entry for that part?   
      
   https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/tiny-2040   
      
   where it says:   
      
   *Notes*   
      
      * The RGB LED is connected to GP18-GP20 and active low (so the   
        on/off state will work in the opposite way to the LED on a   
        Raspberry Pi Pico). You can PWM the pins to dim the LED - check   
        out Tonygo2's MicroPython example.   
      
   The example cited is Python, so not directly of use to you, but here is    
   the link, anyway:
