Description
This experiment consists of an arduino controlled RGB light which changes to a different color at the push of a button. The light colors change seven times until the light turns off.

This experiment uses a pull-down resistor (10k resistance) for the button to control the flow of the current to prevent the high-impedance state (as opposed to 0 and 1 state). Notice the 10k resistor is connected to ground, making it a pull-down resistor.
​
Additionally, three 220 ohm resistors are connected to RBG light to control current/brightness of light.
