Set Pull
Configure the electrical pull of the specified pin.
Many micro:bit pins can be configured as pull-ups. For example, a
pull-up can set a pin’s voltage to high (3.3 volts, or 1
when
calling digital read pin). If one
end of a button is connected to P0
(set to high) and the other end
is connected to GND
(0 volts), then when you press the button,
P0
is driven to 0 volts, and the micro:bit software can detect a
button press.
pins.setPull(DigitalPin.P9, PinPullMode.PullDown);
The pull-up and -down resistors are about 13kOhm.
Parameters
name
: The micro:bit hardware pin to configure (P0
-P20
)pull
: The pull to which to set the pin (down, up, or none)
Example
The following example sets the pull of pin P0
to up (high).
pins.setPull(DigitalPin.P0, PinPullMode.PullUp);
