Summary of the Circuit
This circuit consists of an Arduino UNO microcontroller, a single-pole single-throw (SPST) rocker switch, and an Adafruit 12 NeoPixel Ring. The Arduino UNO is used as the central processing unit to control the NeoPixel Ring, with the rocker switch acting as an input device to toggle power or trigger an event. The NeoPixel Ring is powered by the 5V output from the Arduino and receives data signals from one of the digital pins.
Component List
Rocker Switch (SPST)
- Description: A simple on/off switch that can control the flow of current in a circuit.
