Tutorial 5a - indicator LEDs
============================
Keyboards often have LEDs to indicate CapsLock, NumLock, and other states.
It's one of the first things we look at when a keyboard produces unexpected results.

keybrd sketch for driving LEDs
------------------------------
[keybrd_5_LEDs.ino](keybrd_5_LEDs/keybrd_5_LEDs.ino) is a simple sketch with three LEDs.
The sketch will run on the above breadboard keyboard.

-----------------------
The [keybrd_5a_LED_on_uC.ino](keybrd_5a_LED_on_uC/keybrd_5a_LED_on_uC.ino) sketch will run on the above breadboard keyboard.
As usual, the sketch annotations explain the code.
LED forward voltage
-------------------
Forward voltage is the voltage used by the LED.
Forward voltage is published in the LED's datasheet.
Most blue and green LEDs have about 3.3 forward voltage, which does not reliably illuminate on Teensy LC's 3.3 volts.
Most red and yellow LEDs have around 2.2 forward voltage.
So use red and yellow LEDs on Teensy LC.
Low-current LEDs can go as low as 1.6 forward voltage.
LED brightness
--------------
An LED's current limiting resistor value effects the brightness of the LED.
Lets see how much visual difference resistance makes.
Replace an LED's 4.7k Ohm resistor with a 270 Ohm resistor.
The amount of current (I) going through an LED is directly proportional to how bright it appears.
By picking the correct resistor, you have full control over how bright the LED appears.
It doesn't matter which end of the LED the resistor is on, the important thing is that the resistor and LED are in series.
Lets see how much visual difference resistance makes.
Replace an LED's 4.7k Ohm resistor with a 68 Ohm resistor.
Less resistance makes the LED brighter.
Too little resistance will burn out the LED.
Connecting an LED directly to power will destroy the LED in a bright flash (do not look directly at the LED if you try this).
2-mA LEDs are bright enough for keyboard indicator lights.
Or you can use more resistance on a 20-mA LED to make it dimmer.
The current supplied to an LED should always be limited by a resistor or some other device.
LED current limiting resistor values
------------------------------------
Never connect an LED directly from ground to power. Doing so would destroy the LED.
This formula calculates the minimum resistance for maximum LED brightness:
```
output-pin Supply Voltage Vs
LED Forward Voltage Vf
Forward Current If
minimum current limiting restiance R = (Vs - Vf) / If
From Ohm's Law, minimum current limiting restiance R = (Vs - Vf) / If
```
For Forward Current, use the smaller of:

* Teensy LC on-board LED is on pin 13.
It has a current-limiting resistor on the board, and does not provide enough power for another LED.
Voltages and current capacities are published in datasheets and sometimes pinout diagrams.
For Teensy LC 20 mA pin and the TT Electronics OVLLx8C7 LED:
```
output-pin Supply Voltage Vs = 3.3 volts
LED Forward Voltage Vf = 2.2 volts
use the smaller of:
max pin Current If = 20 mA
max LED Current If = 20 mA
max LED Current If = 30 mA
minimum current limiting restiance R = (Vs - Vf) / If = 55 Ohms
```
Add a safety margin for resistor tolerances (1%, 2%, 5%, 10%), and round up to a standard value.
http://www.rfcafe.com/references/electrical/resistor-values.htm
```
55 Ohms + (55 Ohms * 10%) = 60.5 Ohms < 68 Ohms
```
It is safe to use more resistance.
Calculating the resistance for the Teensy LC 5 mA pin is left as an exercise.

Tutorial 5b - indicator LED on IOE
==================================
This tutorial will show you how to add LEDs to an I/O expander.
It is assumed the reader is familiar with LEDs from tutorial_5a_LED_on_uC.md
and familiar with I/O expanders from tutorial_4c_split_keyboard_with_IOE.md.
Adding LEDs to the basic breadboard keyboard
--------------------------------------------
The breadboard keyboard modifies the basic breadboard keyboard described in [tutorial_1_breadboard_keyboard.md](tutorial_1_breadboard_keyboard.md)
Add components to the breadboard as shown in the picture.
The two clear plastic cylinders are red and yellow LEDs.
Each LED is in series with a 4.7k Ohm current limiting resistor.
LED anodes (the longer lead) are powered by pins GPA6 and GPB6.
LED cathodes (the shorter lead) are connected to a grounded terminal strip.
