How to Fade an LED with a Potentiometer: Arduino

Arduino Use a Potentiometer to fade an LED

In this Arduino tutorial, we’re going to learn the basics of how to fade an LED with a potentiometer. As you turn the knob of the potentiometer the resistance changes. The Arduino will take this readings on the connected analog pin and then software will use a PWM signal at the correct frequency to light […]

Arduino Light Sensor Triggers an LED Tutorial

Light Sensor Trigger LED (photoresistor triggers LED)

In this Arduino tutorial, we’re going to make a a circuit wherein a light sensor triggers and LED to light based on the the level of light in the room. Light sensors are actually light sensitive resistors (or photoresistors). With this type of resistor, its value resistance value changes based on the amount of light […]

Arduino: Use a Motion Sensor to Sound a Piezo Buzzer

Arduino Use a motion sensor to sound a piezo buzzer

In this Arduino tutorial we’re going to learn how to use a motion sensor to sound a piezo buzzer. This is great for an intrusion detection circuit or burglar alarm circuit! Any time the motion sensor senses movement the piezo buzzer will make an audible sound. In this tutorial we will use an active piezo […]

Control a Piezo Buzzer with a Button

Arduino Control a Piezo buzzer with a Button

In this Arduino Tutorial we’re going to learn how to control a piezo buzzer with a button. Pressing a button on your breadboard will cause the piezo buzzer to sound. In this tutorial we will be using a active piezo buzzer. If you’d like to do this with a passive piezo buzzer you can find […]
