What you need

• Backlit Button with Orange LED
• Arduino or Compatible Microcontroller
• 330 Ohm resistor (check the datasheet)
• 12V power supply cable

Steps

1. 1. Connect the button to the microcontroller using the input pins.
2. 2. Connect the orange LED to the output pin of the microcontroller.
3. 3. Connect the resistor between the LED and the output pin.
4. 4. Attach the 12V power supply cable to the button.
5. 5. Load the source code into the microcontroller.
6. 6. Check the connections to ensure there are no incorrect connections.
7. 7. Turn on the power and test the button.
8. 8. Verify that the LED lights up when you press the button.

Example code

```void setup() {} void loop() { if (digitalRead(pulsante) == HIGH) { digitalWrite(led, HIGH); } else { digitalWrite(led, LOW); } }```

Mini project

Create a simple alarm system with a button and an orange LED. Pressing the button should activate the alarm.

Common mistakes

• Don’t forget to connect the resistor to the LED.
• Power the button with a different power supply than 12V.
• Connect the LED to the ground pin of the microcontroller.
• Don’t test the connections before loading the code.
