GPIO_BLINK

This is the classic "Hello World" of GPIO, where we blink an LED. You will need an LED (any color is fine) and a resistor (220 ohms - 1K should be fine). Connect the long side of the LED into pin A7. Connect the short size of the LED to one side of the resistor (doesn't matter which side). Connect the other side of the resistor to any of the pin GND.

Run the application and the LED should start blinking. Hold the back button to exit.

How it works

• For list of pins see \firmware\targets\f18\furi_hal\furi_hal_resources.c

• We define a variable for our LED...

  const GpioPin* const pin_led = &gpio_ext_pa7;
  

• We initialize the pin for output.

  • GpioModeOutputPushPull means true = +3.3V, false = 0V.
  • GpioModeOutputOpenDrain means true = floating, false = 0V.

  furi_hal_gpio_init_simple(pin_led, GpioModeOutputOpenDrain);
  

• We turn the LED on (3v3 volts on the pin).

  furi_hal_gpio_write(pin_led, true);
  

• We wait 500ms.

  furi_delay_ms(500);
  

• We turn the LED off (GND volts on the pin).

  furi_hal_gpio_write(pin_led, false);
  

• We wait 500ms.

  furi_delay_ms(500);
  

• We loop if the back button is not currently pressed.

  while(furi_hal_gpio_read(pin_back))
