Flip-Flop menggunakan GPIO Raspberry Pi

Sabtu, 25 Januari 2014

One of the few things that separates the Pi from other SBC (Single Board Computer)  is the ability to use the GPIO (General Purpose Input/Output) pins which can be set as HIGH or LOW to control any external devices. All you need is a female to male jumper wire to get started. Here I have used a HDD IDE connector to get the job done.

In this post pin 9 is used for GND and pin 11 for GPIO17. The LED was connected using a 470 ohm register in series with pin 9 and 11 to limit the current.

Software Implementation:-

The fastest way to get started is to use python which comes pre-installed with all images. Download theRPi.GPIO library and copy the gz tar ball to the RPi wheezy raspbian. Open the terminal and navigate to the extracted folder containing the RPi.GPIO library. Then type:  $ sudo python setup.py install to install the module. Imp: As the OS is multitasking  and not Real-time unlike Arduino there may be jitters depending on CPU priority.

Based on the library I have written a simple code to turn ON and turn OFF the LED after a delay of 1 sec (1000ms) each.The LED blinks 50 times.

1. import RPi.GPIO as GPIO  
2. import time  
3. # blinking function  
4. def blink(pin):  
5.         GPIO.output(pin,GPIO.HIGH)  
6.         time.sleep(1)  
7.         GPIO.output(pin,GPIO.LOW)  
8.         time.sleep(1)  
9.         return  
10. # to use Raspberry Pi board pin numbers  
11. GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BOARD)  
12. # set up GPIO output channel  
13. GPIO.setup(11, GPIO.OUT)  
14. # blink GPIO17 50 times  
15. for i in range(0,50):  
16.         blink(11)  
17. GPIO.cleanup()
