Microcontroller Basics: Pins, PWM and Signals, Simplified
Whether it's an Arduino Uno or an ESP32, the same few ideas come up again and again: digital and analog pins, PWM, and how to read a sensor.
Words to know
- PWM (pulse-width modulation)
- Think of it like flicking a fan switch on and off very quickly.
- Analog and digital
- Think of it like a light switch versus a dimmer knob.
- Microcontroller
- Think of it like a small brain with hands and eyes.
