LED Arduino Uno Hands-on Science Project An engaging and interactive project that introduces the world of electronics and programming using LED technology and an Arduino Uno microcontroller.
Introduction Blinking an LED is an introductory Arduino project in which we control an LED using Arduino. LED blinking refers to the process of continuously turning an LED (Light Emitting Diode) and off in a repetitive pattern. It is a simple and common demonstration in electronics and microcontroller-based projects.
Components and Tools Arduino Uno A small microcontroller board that acts as the brain of the project. LED lights Lights that emit a bright light when electricity passes through them. Resistors Components that limit the flow of electricity and prevent damage to the LED and Arduino. Jumper wires Wires used to connect the different components together.
Building the Circuit Circuit Diagram We connect the components and create a functional LED circuit. Arduino Board We connected the LED and resistors to specific pins on the Arduino board. Soldering We used a soldering tool to make permanent connections that ensure consistency and stability.
Programming the Arduino 1 Programming The programming was done in a separate and easily installable environment called Mblock. 2 Arduino Language The C/C++ programming language was used to program the Arduino. 3 LED Control We wrote code that controlled the brightness and color of the LED lights.
Testing and Troubleshooting Multimeter Testing We used a multimeter to check that the circuit is working and all components are properly connected. Simulation Testing We used a software simulation to test and verify our code before running it on the physical circuit.
