LED Blinking

The LED Blinking project demonstrates how to create a simple blinking effect with an LED using an Arduino Mega. This project is an introductory exercise in controlling digital outputs with Arduino, showcasing the ability to turn an LED on and off at regular intervals.

Components Needed

Block Diagram

Circuit Setup

Connect the LED to Arduino Mega:

Instructions

Circuit Setup:

Wire the LED and resistor as per the connection diagram provided.

Ensure the resistor limits the current to the LED to prevent damage.

Code Upload:

Open the Arduino IDE and create a new sketch.

Copy and paste the provided Arduino code into the sketch.

Testing:

Upload the code to the Arduino Mega.

The LED will blink on and off, with each state lasting for 1 second.
