Step 9Connect the RGB LED to the Arduino

Connect the RGB LED to the Arduino
You can use any RGB LED, and connect it to any of the PWM pins on the Arduino. I'm only using Green and Red Colors, so my setup is:

Red-> Pin 5
Green -> Pin 6
Ground -> Ground


You may want to put a resistor between each pin and the LED (on the order of 200 ohms). I didn't do this bc my LED can take much higher current than the arduino can supply, so it will not burn out.
