The arduino ide comes with the blink without delay example, this example uses the millis function to blink a led. If you need higher frequencies, but dont need to count the individual steps, you could try the arduino tone function, or programming the atmega timer registers directly to avoid the gaps between consecutive tone calls. Arduino or genuino board optional led 220 ohm resistor circuit. Instead they both blink every 3 seconds with red 1 seconds after green and green 2 second after red. In this tutorial we are going to blink a led using arduino due, for getting started with arduino due board. In the first set of projects the following are included.
