Detailed Description

• ID: led
• Name: Light-emitting Diode (LED)
• Other Names: Grove LED
• Category: led
• Manufacturer: seeed
• Connection: gpio
• Kit: gsk

UPM module for the LED (or other similar light-emitting diodes). An LED is a p-n junction semiconductor which emits light in response to voltage. The longer wire of an LED connects to the positive seat (anode); the shorter wire connects to the negative seat (cathode). The flat side of the bulb corresponds to the cathode, while the rounded side corresponds to the anode.

    // Create the Grove LED object using GPIO pin 2
    upm::Led* led = new upm::Led(2);

    // Print the name
    std::cout << led->name() << std::endl;

    // Turn the LED on and off 10 times, pausing one second
    // between transitions
    for (int i=0; i < 10; i++) {
        led->on();
        sleep(1);
        led->off();
        sleep(1);
    }

    // Delete the Grove LED object
    delete led;

Member Function Documentation

mraa_result_t write

(

int

value

)

Turns the LED on or off, depending on the value. If the value is positive (greater than or equal to 1), the LED is turned on. Otherwise, for 0 or negative values, the LED is turned off.

Parameters

value

Tells the LED to turn on (for values >=1) or off (for values <1)

Returns

0 if successful, non-zero otherwise

mraa_result_t off

(

)

Turns the LED off

Returns

0 if successful, non-zero otherwise

mraa_result_t on

(

)

Turns the LED on

Returns

0 if successful, non-zero otherwise
