# ESP32-C6 RGB LED Control
This repository contains Arduino code for controlling the built-in RGB LED on the ESP32-C6 microcontroller. It provides a simple and flexible way to manage LED colors.
## Important Note
The built-in RGB LED on the ESP32-C6 is connected to `GPIO 8`. This is already configured in the code, but it's crucial to know if you're working with other components or modifying the pin configuration.
## Features
- Easy control of the built-in RGB LED on GPIO 8
- Predefined color constants for common colors
- Simple function to set any RGB color
- Easily expandable to include more colors and patterns
## Software Requirements
- Arduino IDE
- ESP32 board support for Arduino IDE
- Adafruit NeoPixel library
## Installation
1. Install the Arduino IDE from [arduino.cc](https://www.arduino.cc/en/software)
2. Add ESP32 board support to Arduino IDE:
- Open Arduino IDE
- Go to File > Preferences
- Add the following URL to "Additional Boards Manager URLs":
`https://raw.githubusercontent.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/gh-pages/package_esp32_index.json`
- Go to Tools > Board > Boards Manager
- Search for "esp32" and install the latest version
3. Install the Adafruit NeoPixel library:
- Go to Sketch > Include Library > Manage Libraries
- Search for "Adafruit NeoPixel"
- Install the latest version
...
## Customization
- The `LED_PIN` is set to `8` for the built-in LED. Do not change this unless you're using an external LED.
- Add new color definitions in the `RGB` struct format
- Create new light patterns by combining `setColor()` function with different delays
- Modify the `BLINK_DURATION` to change the speed of the blinking pattern
- Create new light patterns by combining setColor() and blinkColor() function
...
## Usage
1. Download the `esp32_c6_rgb_led_control.ino` file
2. Open the `.ino` file in Arduino IDE
3. Select your ESP32-C6 board from Tools > Board menu
4. Select the appropriate port from Tools > Port menu
5. Click the Upload button to flash the code to your ESP32-C6
## Example
Here's the basic code structure:
```cpp
#include
constexpr uint8_t LED_PIN = 8;
constexpr uint8_t NUM_LEDS = 1;
Adafruit_NeoPixel rgbLed(NUM_LEDS, LED_PIN, NEO_GRB + NEO_KHZ800);
struct RGB {
uint8_t r, g, b;
};
constexpr RGB COLOR_OFF = {0, 0, 0};
// ...Feel free to add more colors here...
constexpr RGB CUSTOM_COLOR = {255, 0, 255};
void setup() {
rgbLed.begin();
rgbLed.show();
}
void setColor(const RGB& color) {
rgbLed.setPixelColor(0, rgbLed.Color(color.r, color.g, color.b));
rgbLed.show();
}
void loop() {
setColor(CUSTOM_COLOR);
delay(500);
setColor(COLOR_OFF);
delay(500);
}
```
