Again, testing the project is the same as for Project 3. You will need to open the Serial Monitor window and just start typing. Figure 3-8 This is the first project that we have made that has enough components to justify making an Arduino Shield circuit board to sit on top of the Arduino board itself. We are also going to use this hardware with minor modifications in Project 6, so perhaps it is time to make ourselves a Luxeon LED Shield. Making your own circuit boards at home is perfectly possible, but requires the use of noxious chemicals and a fair amount of equipment.
The schematic diagram for our control circuit is shown in Figure 3-5. The 270⍀ resistor (R1) limits the current that flows through the base. We can calculate the current using the formula I ϭ V/R. 6V between the base and emitter, and the highest voltage the Arduino can supply from an output pin is 5V. 4/270 ϭ 16 mA. R2 limits the current flowing through the LED to around 350 mA. We came up with the figure of 4 ⍀ by using the formula R ϭ V/I. V will be The operation of an NPN bipolar transistor.
Two factors determine how much water passes any point in the circuit in a given time (the current): Figure 2-2 Ohm’s Law. ■ A Tour of Arduino ■ The height of the water (or if you prefer, the pressure generated by the pump). This is like voltage in electronics. ■ The resistance to flow offered by the constriction in the pipework 17 The more powerful the pump, the higher the water can be pumped and the greater the current that will flow through the system. On the other hand, the greater the resistance offered by the pipework, the lower the current.
