Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) With Arduino

Arduino
We are going over controlling LEDs with pulse width modulation in the Arduino. We'll be using the same materials from our previous section on blinking LED, as shown here. What is Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)? We can begin to move onto the next stage of LED control, that we've flashed an LED, beginning with pulse width modulation. W Analogue control, though, allows for on and off, of course, but all states in between as well. It's comes in handy when using things like potentiometers to adjust values in increments, which we'll be looking at later. Attributes of Pulse Width Modulation? A digital pin can simulate these attributes with pulse width modulation by pulsing "ON" and "OFF" signals at varying frequencies to create the illusion of analogue control. This occurs ...
