const int inputVoltage = 5;  // Input voltage from Arduino
const int outputVoltage = 0; // Output voltage to be measured
void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop() {
  int output = (inputVoltage  100) / (100 + 100); // Calculate output voltage
  Serial.print("Output Voltage: ");
  Serial.println(output);

# Calculate current limit
current_limit = 5 / 100  # 5V power supply, 100 Ohm resistor
try:
    while True:
        # Turn on LED
        GPIO.output(17, GPIO.HIGH)
        print("LED is on")
        
        # Sleep for 1 second
        time.sleep(1)
        
        # Turn off LED
        GPIO.output(17, GPIO.LOW)
        print("LED is off")
        
        # Sleep for 1 second
        time.sleep(1)

const int resistorPin = 16; // 100 Ohm resistor connected to GPIO 16
void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  pinMode(buttonPin, INPUT);
  pinMode(resistorPin, OUTPUT);
  digitalWrite(resistorPin, HIGH); // Pull-up resistor
}
void loop() {
  int buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin);
