Circuit Documentation

Summary

The circuit consists of an Arduino UNO microcontroller, an HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Sensor, and a red two-pin LED. The Arduino UNO is used as the central processing unit, controlling the LED and interfacing with the ultrasonic sensor to measure distances. The HC-SR04 sensor is powered by the Arduino and is responsible for sending ultrasonic waves and receiving the echo to determine the distance to an object. The LED serves as an indicator, which can be controlled by the Arduino to signal events or statuses based on the program logic.
