Tutorial: How to use the R13-507 Green 16mm Push Button Switch

This push button switch is ideal for manual control projects, such as lights or motors. Useful for beginners and intermediates.

What you need

• R13-507 Green 16mm Push Button Switch
• Arduino or microcontroller
• Power supply
• Connection wire

Steps

1. 1. Check that the switch works as per the datasheet.
2. 2. Prepare the microcontroller and power supply.
3. 3. Connect the switch to a digital pin on the microcontroller (e.g., D2).
4. 4. Connect the power supply to ground and VCC.
5. 5. Write the code: `int buttonPin = 2; int buttonState = 0; void setup() { pinMode(buttonPin, INPUT); } void loop() { buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin); if (buttonState == HIGH) { // Turn on or off an LED } }`
6. 6. Upload the code to the microcontroller.
7. 7. Press the switch and verify that the code works correctly.
8. 8. Install the switch in the final project.

Example code

int buttonPin = 2; int buttonState = 0; void setup() { pinMode(buttonPin, INPUT); } void loop() { buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin); if (buttonState == HIGH) { // Accendi o spenga un LED } }

Mini project

Create a switch to control a light. Connect an LED to an analog pin and check that the switch controls the brightness.

Common mistakes

• Do not check the switch before installation.
• Connect the switch to the wrong pin.
• Omit code verification.
• Do not use an incorrect power supply.
