ATMEGA 16 and RGB LED examples

A couple of simple examples, we used an RGB LED breakout. This was a common anode type, so to switch an LED on you need to switch the appropriate port pin low.

void main() {
DDRB = 0xFF;           // Set direction to be output
 
do {
PORTB = 0xFF;        // Turn OFF diodes on PORTB
Delay_ms(200);      // 1 second delay
PORTB = 0xFE;
Delay_ms(200);      // 1 second delay
PORTB = 0xFD;
Delay_ms(200);      // 1 second delay
PORTB = 0xFB;
Delay_ms(100);      // 1 second delay
} while(1);            // Endless loop
}

PORTB = PORTB - 0x01; //

if(PORTB == 0xF8) //11111000 = R,G,B on
{
PORTB = 0xFF; //LEDS off
Delay_ms(500);
}
}while(1); // To set infinite loop
