Tutorial : Fading light
If you do not know how to create a new project have a look to the tutorial How to create a new project ?.
In this tutorial we will see how to create a fading LED with the Arduino Designer.
In this example we use the Arduino Uno platform and hardware components from the DFRobot Ardublock kit.
The hardware is defined as below :
The DFRduino Uno R3 platform is used, the white LED module is connected to the digital pin 11 of the Arduino board. It is important to connect the LED to a PWM digital pin. PWM is a technique for getting an analog-like behavior from a digital output by switching it off and on very fast.
In the sketch, we use the white LED as a Level module.
Finally, click on the Upload button from the toolbar to upload the code to the Arduino board.
