SUMMARY
This chapter introduced the pushbutton and common pushbutton circuits. This chapter
also introduced how to build and test a pushbutton circuit and how to use the BASIC
Stamp to read the state of one or more pushbuttons. The BASIC Stamp was programmed
to make decisions based on the state(s) of the pushbutton(s) and this information was
used to control LED(s). A reaction timer game was built using these concepts. In
addition to controlling LEDs, the BASIC Stamp was programmed to poll a pushbutton
and take time measurements.
Reading individual pushbutton circuits using the special I/O variables built into the
BASIC Stamp (
