Digital Output (LED)
Double-click on a Digital Output object, labelled LED Driver, in order to run the example: [[Image:{{{1}}}_DigitalOutputLED_Example.jpg|center|link=]]
General information about the selected object will be displayed at the top of the window. You can also experiment with the following functionality:
- From the Forward Voltage drop-down menu, select the appropriate voltage for your LED. It is recommended to set the forward voltage to the first setting above the maximum voltage specified by your LED's datasheet.
- Use the Current Limit slider to set an appropriate limit for your LED. The current limit will be specified in your LED's datasheet.
- Use the large button to toggle power to the LED.
- Use the Duty Cycle slider to precisely control the amount of power supplied to the LED.
