Arduino LED Circuit

Make sure you have all of the parts:

1. Arduino

2. USB Cord

3. Computer with Arduino IDE installed

4. Yellow wire

5. Green wire

6. Red LED

First, put the circuit togther.

Green goes to ground and -

Yellow goes to pin 13 and +

The longer leg of the LED goes to the + rail

Then plug in the USB to the Arduino and the computer

• Open the Arduino IDE on your tablet
• Go to File/New
• Erase all of the code from the window
• Copy and paste all of the code from the box below into the Arduino Sketch

/* * Blink * * The basic Arduino example. Turns on an LED on for one second, * then off for one second, and so on... We use pin 13 because, * depending on your Arduino board, it has either a built-in LED * or a built-in resistor so that you need only an LED. * * http://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/Blink */ int ledPin = 13; // LED connected to digital pin 13 void setup() // run once, when the sketch starts { pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); // sets the digital pin as output } void loop() // run over and over again { digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); // sets the LED on delay(1000); // waits for a second digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); // sets the LED off delay(1000); // waits for a second }

Go to Tools--> Port and choose the COM with Arduino
