If we do not connect the resistor, you get a message in software during simulation that the “LED broke because of: LED is driven by 64.1 mA while maximum current is 20.0 mA”. The resistor is used here because it helps us to limit the current and prevent the RGB LED from burning. Here we have a resistor connected between the LED anode (+) pin and Arduino output pins 11, 9 and 6. Here its Red, Cathode, Blue & Green terminals are connected to pin 11, GND, pin 9 and pin 8 of Arduino respectively. The RGB LED has four terminals (three anodes and one cathode) that are Red (+), Cathode (–), Blue (+) & Green (+) and it is a common cathode type LED.

REQUIRED HARDWARE OR COMPONENT S.N.ĬONNECTION TABLE FOR RGB LED INTERFACING WITH ARDUINO IN TINKERCAD S.N. In simulation, you can see the output of the LED, the colour of LED getting changed every second from red to blue and blue to green repeatedly. In the previous topic, you learned Code Blocks for how to blink an LED, in this section I will show you, code blocks for RGB LED interfacing with Arduino in tinkercad.
