What you need

• Arduino
• jumper cable
• power supply

Steps

1. Step 1: Connect the button to an Arduino digital pin using a jumper cable. Check the button polarity on the datasheet if necessary.
2. Step 2: Write an Arduino sketch to read the state of the button and display the output on an LED connected to another digital pin.
3. Step 3: Upload the code to the Arduino.
4. Step 4: Test the connection by pressing the button. The LED should turn on or off based on your sketch configuration.

Example code

const int bottonePin = 2; // Collega il bottone a questo pin
const int ledPin = 13;
int statoBottone = 0;
void setup() {
pinMode(bottonePin, INPUT);
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);}
void loop() {
statoBottone = digitalRead(bottonePin);
if (statoBottone == HIGH) {
digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);} else {
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);}}

Mini project

Create a start switch for a slide projector. Connect the button to a digital pin on the Arduino and an LED as an indicator.

Common mistakes

• Connecting the button to the wrong pin
• Not checking the state of the button in the Arduino code

Recommended accessories

• LED
• 220Ω resistor
• 3D print to protect the button
• Jumper wire

Frequently asked questions
