Driving an RGB LED — SIK Circuit 3

Make an RGB LED display a rainbow of colors! Learn about PWM (analogWrite), color mixing, and how red, green, and blue light combine to create any color.

Parts & Introduction

An RGB LED contains three tiny LEDs (red, green, blue) in one package. By mixing different brightness levels of each color, you can create any color in the rainbow. This experiment introduces analogWrite() for PWM output.

Parts Needed

  • 1x Arduino Uno + USB cable
  • 1x Breadboard
  • 1x RGB LED (Common Cathode)
  • 3x 330Ω Resistors
  • 5x Jumper Wires

RGB LED Pin Order (flat edge facing you): Red, Ground (longest pin), Green, Blue.

Hardware Hookup

Wiring Instructions

  1. Place the RGB LED in the breadboard. Identify pins from the flattened edge: Red, GND (longest), Green, Blue.
  2. Connect the GND pin (longest, second from left) to the GND rail.
  3. Connect the Red pin through a 330Ω resistor to Arduino Pin 9.
  4. Connect the Green pin through a 330Ω resistor to Arduino Pin 10.
  5. Connect the Blue pin through a 330Ω resistor to Arduino Pin 11.

Pins 9, 10, and 11 are all PWM-capable (marked with ~ on the board).

Make an RGB LED display a rainbow of colors!

Hardware connections:
  RGB LED pins (from flattened edge): RED, COMMON, GREEN, BLUE
  RED -> 330 ohm resistor -> Pin 9
  COMMON -> GND
  GREEN -> 330 ohm resistor -> Pin 10
  BLUE -> 330 ohm resistor -> Pin 11

Test & Experiment

What You Should See

The LED cycles through 8 solid colors (off, red, green, blue, yellow, cyan, purple, white) for 1 second each, then smoothly fades through the entire color spectrum.

Troubleshooting

  • Incorrect colors: With four pins close together, it's easy to misplace one. Double-check each connection.
  • Red too bright: The red diode is often brighter. Try a higher-value resistor on the red pin, or reduce in code: analogWrite(RED_PIN, redIntensity/3).

Experiments to Try

  • Add a potentiometer to control which color is displayed.
  • Create your own color sequences — try a "sunrise" effect (dark red → orange → yellow → white).
