Introduction

In this experiment, you will use a button and a motor together to assemble a small fan. You can shift the rotational speed, or gear selection, of the fan by pressing the button.

Components

– 1 * SunFounder Uno board

– 1 * Breadboard

– 1 * USB cable

– Jumper wires

– 1 * DC motor

– 1 * Resistor (10KΩ)

– 1 * Button

– 1 * Motor diver chip L293D

– 1 * 104 Ceramic Capacitor

– 1 * Fan

Principle

This experiment is to control the rotational speed of the motor by reading the times the button is pressed.

The fan has 4 gears. After startup, the default gear is 0 and the fan will not rotate. If the button is pressed once, the small fan will get into first gear (low speed) and rotate slowly; for pressing twice, it will get into the second gear (medium speed) and rotate at a medium pace; for pressing three times, it will get into third gear (high speed) and rotate rapidly. If the button is pressed four times, it will return to 0 gear and stop.

Experimental Procedures

Step 1: Build the circuit

The schematic diagram

Step 2: Program (please go to our official website www.sunfounder.com to download related code by clicking LEARN -> Get Tutorials)

Step 3: Compile the code

Step 4: Upload the sketch to the SunFounder Uno board

As explained above, the times you press the button should change the rotational speed of the fan. Pressing it once will cause it to rotate slowly, while pressing it three times will cause it to rotate quickly, and pressing it four times will cause it to stop.
