LED Blinking
Component Required:
- LED
- Resistor 220 ohm
- Jumper Wire (Male to Male/Male to Female)
- Bread Board (Optional)
- Arduino
Objective
The objective of this project is to create a program that blinks an LED on and off with a delay of one second using an Arduino microcontroller. This project aims to teach students how to:
- Understand the basic structure and syntax of an Arduino sketch.
- Use digital pins to control output devices like LEDs.
- Implement time delay functions in Arduino programming using the
delay()
function. - Develop basic coding skills required for controlling electronic components with Arduino.

Programming Step:
Initialization of pin;
- int L1=3;
pinMode();
- pinMode(L1,OUTPUT);
Logic
- digitalWrite(L1,HIGH);
- delay(1000);
- digitalWrite(L1,LOW);
- delay(1000);
Programming
int L1 = 3;
void setup()
{
pinMode(L1, OUTPUT);
}
void loop()
{
digitalWrite(L1, HIGH);
delay(1000);
digitalWrite(L1, LOW);
delay(1000);
}
