* Lesson 2: Dim an LED
*
* The main purpose of the code is to show how to use the
* PWM technique and how to change the brightness of an LED.
*
* Make sure you connected the LED correctly (anode to positive and
* cathode to ground), otherwise, you will burn the LED. Also, do not
* forget to use the resistor.
*
* More information about the connection can be found in the guide.

//the int variable "LED" stores the pin used by the LED
const int LED = D6;

//the setup function runs only once when the board is powered
void setup()
{
//the following instruction initialises the pin stored in the
//variable LED as OUTPUT
pinMode(LED, OUTPUT);
}

//the loop function runs over and over again forever


void loop()
{
//PWM is generated using 10 bits, so it ranges between
//0 and 1023 (2^10 = 1024)

for(int fade = 0; fade < 1024; fade++)


{
//set the brightness of the LED using analoWrite();
analogWrite(LED, fade);

//wait 2 milliseconds
delay(2);
}

//keep the LED at the maximum brightness for 500 ms


delay(500);

for(int fade = 1023; fade >= 0; fade--)

//set the brightness of the LED using analoWrite();
analogWrite(LED, fade);

//wait 2 milliseconds
delay(2);
}

//keep the LED off for 500 ms
