On the other hand, when the push button is released (residing in its normally open state), there is no reference voltage line connected at pin 7. So when push button is pressed, a +5 volts is available at pin 7 and this will be considered as state HIGH. This voltage will drop across the 10K ohm resistor. When the push button is pressed, the reference voltage line will get connected to pin number 7. Arduino board has a readily available +5 volts reference on power pins cluster. The reference voltage is used to detect ON state or closed state of the push button. To avoid a short circuit between pin number 7 and ground, you should connect a resistor (preferable a 10K ohm) in between. A reference voltage should be connected to one end of switch and the other end of switch should be connected to ground. So we should connect the push button switch to pin 7 of arduino as shown in circuit. In this example, I have set pin number 7 as a digital input. To connect push button to arduino, we need one of the digital I/O pins configured as a digital input. I have added the circuit diagram to control LED with arduino using a push button switch. If you want to know more about working of different push button switches, you can read our detailed article on push button switches. This switch will close for the time we keep its actuator pressed. A normally open push button switch will be in its open state by default. In this example I am using a “ normally open” mini push button switch. In fact, we can use any type of a simple switch like Push to On or Push to Off or a mini push button switch. We can use a push button switch to give user input to arduino. What if we want to control led’s ON and OFF time based on a user input? This means, I want to give an input manually and based on my input LED should turn ON and OFF. In both cases we wrote software commands to make our arduino blink led’s automatically at an interval of 1 second. We made one LED blink and then we stepped ahead to make two LED’s blink. If you observe carefully, so far we were just playing with some outputs. You can watch video of the same circuit below. I have added a photograph of the practical setup I made below. Wait another 1 second and you will see LED2 turning OFF and LED1 turning ON. After 1 second LED1 will turn OFF and at the same time LED2 will turn ON. Inside the loop(), I have written commands to blink LED’s alternatively. I have configured them as output inside the setup() function. ![]() I have used pin number 12 and 13 as output. The only difference in this sketch is use of 2 pins in output mode. Sketch to Blink Two LED’s using Arduino const int LED1 = 12 So here is the circuit diagram to blink 2 led’s using arduino. If you have learned the “Hello World” program carefully, you now know that input/output configuration of pins has to be done inside the setup() function. They can be configured as either input or output in the sketch you create for arduino. There are 14 I/O (input/output) pins in your Arduino uno board. Blinking Two LED’s using ArduinoĪs a beginner, if you have tried the “Hello World” program to blink an LED using Arduino you can try to blink Two LED’s as next project. Toggle 2 LED’s using a Push button switch 1. We have demonstrated 5 simple led based projects using arduino, which will help you to learn its basic concepts.Ģ. In our previous article, I have written in detail about blinking an LED using Arduino. This article is another step forward in learning more about Arduino. ![]()
