Mastering Analog Signal Reading on micro:bit

Introduction to Analog Read Pin

The Analog Read Pin function allows users to read analog signals ranging from 0 to 1023 from specified pins on the micro:bit. This functionality is essential for projects that require reading sensor data or other analog inputs.

Key Features:

• Pin Selection: Users can specify which pin to read from, such as P0 through P4 or P10.
• Return Values: The function returns a numerical value that represents the analog signal detected on the specified pin.
• Practical Use Cases: This function can be used in various applications, such as reading temperature sensors, light sensors, or potentiometers, making it a versatile tool for educational and hobbyist projects.

Example Usage:

let value = pins.analogReadPin(AnalogPin.P1);
basic.showNumber(value);

This example reads the value from pin P1 and displays it on the LED screen, demonstrating how to integrate analog readings into your micro:bit projects.
