AR-B4: Running Effect of LEDs

This entry is part 4 of 13 in the series Arduino Basic Circuits

In this code we use 4 LEDs connected on breadboard with 4 resistors of 1kΩ. This code produces the effect of running LEDs.

Required Material

Arduino UNO Board – 1, data cable – 1, Red LEDs – 4, Jumper wires – 5, 1kΩ resistor (Brown Black Red) – 4.

Working

After uploading the code in Arduino UNO board, LED1, LED2, LED3 and LED4 will be ON one-by-one. Thus each LED will be ON in sequence and then all OFF.

The Code

With this code you get the idea of how the decorative effect of LEDs is obtained in DIWALI Series, which we use to decorate our home. Upload the following code and enjoy the beautiful decorative effect of LEDs.

 int led1 = 1;
 int led2 = 2;
 int led3 = 3;
 int led4 = 4;
  void setup()
 {
   pinMode(led1,OUTPUT);
   pinMode(led2,OUTPUT);
   pinMode(led3,OUTPUT);
   pinMode(led4,OUTPUT);
 }
 void loop()
 {
   digitalWrite(led1,HIGH); // 1st
   digitalWrite(led2,LOW);
   digitalWrite(led3,LOW);
   digitalWrite(led4,LOW);
   delay(100);
   digitalWrite(led1,LOW); // 2nd
   digitalWrite(led2,HIGH);
   digitalWrite(led3,LOW);
   digitalWrite(led4,LOW);
   delay(100);
   digitalWrite(led1,LOW); // 3rd
   digitalWrite(led2,LOW);
   digitalWrite(led3,HIGH);
   digitalWrite(led4,LOW);
   delay(100);
   digitalWrite(led1,LOW); // 4th
   digitalWrite(led2,LOW);
   digitalWrite(led3,LOW);
   digitalWrite(led4,HIGH);
   delay(100);
   digitalWrite(led1,LOW); // all off
   digitalWrite(led2,LOW);
   digitalWrite(led3,LOW);
   digitalWrite(led4,LOW);
   delay(100);
}
