Circuit Documentation

Summary

This circuit is designed to blink a red LED using an Arduino UNO. The LED is connected to the Arduino through a resistor to limit the current. The Arduino is programmed to turn the LED on and off at one-second intervals.

Code Documentation

Arduino UNO Code

void setup() {
  pinMode(13, OUTPUT); // Set digital pin 13 (D13) as an output
}

void loop() {
  digitalWrite(13, HIGH);   // Turn the LED on (High is voltage level)
  delay(1000);              // Wait for a second (1000 milliseconds)
  digitalWrite(13, LOW);    // Turn the LED off by making the voltage low
  delay(1000);              // Wait for a second (1000 milliseconds)
}

This code sets up pin 13 on the Arduino UNO as an output. In the main loop, it turns the LED on and off with a one-second delay between each state change.
