Description
Use the Arduino to control a light emitting diode and make it blink in different rate.
Components Used
- Light Emitting Diode (LED)
- 220 ohm Resistor
Arduino Code
/*

Modified code so that turns on an LED on for 2 seconds, then off for half a second, repeatedly.

int ledPin = 13; // LED connected to digital pin 13
// The setup() method runs once, when the sketch starts
void setup() {
// initialize the digital pin as an output:
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
}
// the loop() method runs over and over again,
// as long as the Arduino has power
void loop()
{
digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); // set the LED on
delay(2000); // wait for 2 seconds
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); // set the LED off
delay(500); // wait for half a second
