The Blue MB-102 switch is ideal for DIY projects requiring manual current flow control. It is compatible with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontrollers, making it useful in various contexts such as creating simple circuits or interactive devices. Tutorial: How to use the Blue Two-Way Lever Switch The Blue Two-Way Lever Switch is ideal for controlling simple electronic circuits. It is perfect for Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or any other microcontroller projects. What do you need? Arduino Uno Connection Jumper Breadboard Steps Connect the Blue Two-Way Lever Switch to the breadboard using jumper wires. Connect one of the switch’s output lines to a digital pin on the microcontroller (e.g., Arduino). Connect the other output line to the GND input of the microcontroller. Write an Arduino sketch to read the switch state and display it on a different digital pin connected to an LED. Example code // Reads the switch state int button = 2; void setup() { pinMode(button, INPUT); } void loop() { digitalWrite(13, digitalRead(button)); } Mini-project Create a night light projector that turns on and off with the switch. Connect LEDs to the microcontroller to create lighting effects. Common errors Incorrectly connect GND Use an unconfigured digital pin as input Check the operating voltage of the switch Recommended accessories Arduino Uno R3 Large breadboard Various jumper wires Various colored LEDs Frequently asked questions What is the operating voltage? Check the product datasheet. Can it be used with Raspberry Pi? Yes, but ensure compatible logic levels.
