Introduction

This homework was an introduction to Arduino microcontroller and

sketch environment. It also served to introduce the basics of
electronics and using a breadboard.

CODE

const int ledPin = 13;

// the setup function runs once when you press reset or power
the board
void setup() {
// initialize digital pin LED_BUILTIN as an output.
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
}

// the loop function runs over and over again forever

void loop() {
digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); // turn the LED on (HIGH is the
voltage level)
delay(100); // wait for a second
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); // turn the LED off by making
the voltage LOW
delay(100); // wait for a second
}

Conclusions

This assignment was not a difficult one considering some of my

prior experience with microcontrollers and some mechatronics. I
did learn how to use KiCAD, and I look forward to exploring it
more in future assignments. Luckily, online forums were helpful
for many challenges I had with the software.
