The Fabulous Arduino: 1-Blink

The document describes an Arduino sketch that blinks the onboard LED. It explains that most Arduinos have an LED connected to digital pin 13 that can be controlled through code. The sketch sets pin 13 as an output and alternates between turning the pin high and low with delays, causing the LED to blink on and off every second. It provides the code needed to recreate the basic blinking behavior as well as links for determining the onboard LED pin for other Arduino models.

The Fabulous Arduino

1- Blink

/*
Blink
Turns on an LED on for one second, then off for one second, repeatedly.

Most Arduinos have an on-board LED you can control. On the UNO, MEGA
and ZERO
it is attached to digital pin 13, on MKR1000 on pin 6. LED_BUILTIN is set to
the correct LED pin independent of which board is used.
If you want to know what pin the on-board LED is connected to on your
Arduino model, check
the Technical Specs of your board at

// the setup function runs once when you press reset or power the board
void setup() {
// initialize digital pin LED_BUILTIN as an output.
pinMode(LED_BUILTIN, OUTPUT);
}
// the loop function runs over and over again forever
void loop() {
digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH); // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage
level)
delay(1000); // wait for a second
digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW); // turn the LED off by making the voltage
LOW
delay(1000); // wait for a second
}
