StickC M5Stack LED Blink
In this project we will learn how to connect and make an LED Blink using a M5StickC ESP32 module.
Watch the Video.
What You Will Need
- M5StickC ESP32 module
- LED
- Visuino software: Download Visuino here: https://www.visuino.eu
Circuit
- Connect LED negative pin to StickC pin GND
- Connect LED positive pin to StickC pin G26
Start Visuino, and Select the M5 Stack Stick C Board Type
Start Visuino as shown in the first picture Click on the "Tools" button on the Arduino component (Picture 1) in Visuino When the dialog appears, select "M5 Stack Stick C" as shown on Picture 2
In Visuino Add & Set Components
- Add "Pulse Generator" component
- Select "PulseGenerator1" and in the properties window change the frequency to make the LED Blinking faster or slower:
- Frequency: 1 > LED will blink once per second
- Frequency: 0.5 > LED will blink once per 2 seconds
- Frequency: 10 > LED will blink once per 10 per second
- Connect "PulseGenerator1" pin Out to "M5 Stack Stick C" pin GPIO 26
Generate, Compile, and Upload the Code
In Visuino, at the bottom click on the "Build" Tab, make sure the correct port is selected, then click on the "Compile/Build and Upload" button.
