The analog joystick is a commonly used electronic component in video games. It allows you to control movement and perform various actions by manipulating the joystick. In this article, we will explore the functionality and pins of the analog joystick, as well as provide example code for reading its values. The analog joystick consists of five pins: GND: This pin serves as the input low signal. +5V (or +3.3V for 3....
In this Arduino project, we will learn how to control a servo motor using a potentiometer. By reading the rotation of the potentiometer through an analog input pin, we can obtain values ranging from 0 to 1023. We will utilize these values to rotate the servo motor from 0° to 180°. First, let’s build the circuit and then proceed to write the program. Connect the power pins (5V and GND) to the + and - breadboard lines, as shown in the image below....
When working with analog input pins on an Arduino, the acquired values are typically in the range of 0 to 1023. This is because the analog read resolution is 10 bits, resulting in a range of 2^10, which is 1024. However, on certain ARM-based Arduino devices such as Arduino Zero, Arduino Due, and the Arduino MKR family, it is possible to extend the resolution to 12 bits by calling the analogReadResolution(12) function....
