Push Button Example to turn on the LED for Intel® Edison Board

This example uses a momentary push button to turn on the LED. We are using the code provided under examples for Arduino* IDE.

Hardware

• Intel® Edison module
• Arduino* expansion board
• 10k ohm resistor
• Wires
• Breadboard
• Momentary push button
• 1 LED
• 220 ohm resistor

Instructions

1. Make the following breadboard-to-Arduino expansion board connections.

2. Place the LED on the breadboard. Notice that the longer leg of the LED is positive, and the shorter let is negative. Make the following connections.

3. Place the momentary push button in the middle of the breadboard with the divider underneath. Make the following connections.

4. Connect the power supply and the USB to USB port on the Arduino expansion board.
5. Open Arduino IDE. Click Tools > Board and select Intel® Edison.
6. Click Tools > Serial Port and select the Com # that the Intel Edison Board is connected to.
7. Click File > Examples > 02.Digital and select Button.
8. Click upload icon.
