Pin Configuration

6V Mini Dosing Pump Documentation
Pin Description
The 6V Mini Dosing Pump has a total of 3 pins, which are used to control and power the pump. Below is a detailed description of each pin:
Pin 1: VCC (Power Supply)
Function: Power supply pin
Description: This pin is used to supply power to the pump. The recommended voltage is 6V DC.
Connection: Connect to a 6V DC power source, such as a battery or a power adapter.
Pin 2: GND (Ground)
Function: Ground pin
Description: This pin is used to provide a return path for the power supply and is connected to the negative terminal of the power source.
Connection: Connect to the negative terminal of the power source (e.g., battery negative or GND of a power adapter).
Pin 3: Signal (Control)
Function: Control signal pin
Description: This pin is used to control the pump's operation. The pump can be turned ON/OFF by applying a digital signal (0V or 6V) to this pin.
Connection: Connect to a digital output pin of a microcontroller or a logic level of a control circuit.
Connection Structure
To connect the 6V Mini Dosing Pump, follow the below structure:
Connect the VCC (Pin 1) to a 6V DC power source (e.g., battery positive).
Connect the GND (Pin 2) to the negative terminal of the power source (e.g., battery negative).
Connect the Signal (Pin 3) to a digital output pin of a microcontroller or a logic level of a control circuit.

Code Examples

### Example 1: Basic Pump Control using Arduino

This example demonstrates how to control the 6V Mini Dosing Pump using an Arduino board.

```cpp
const int pumpPin = 3;  // Pin connected to pump's signal pin

void setup() {
  pinMode(pumpPin, OUTPUT);
}

void loop() {
  // Turn the pump ON for 5 seconds
  digitalWrite(pumpPin, HIGH);
  delay(5000);
  
  // Turn the pump OFF for 5 seconds
  digitalWrite(pumpPin, LOW);
  delay(5000);
}
```

In this example, the pump is connected to Arduino's digital pin 3. The `digitalWrite()` function is used to send a digital signal to the pump, turning it ON or OFF.

### Example 2: Pump Control with Raspberry Pi using Python

This example illustrates how to control the 6V Mini Dosing Pump using a Raspberry Pi and Python.

```python
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import time

# Set up GPIO mode
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)

# Define the pump pin
pump_pin = 17

# Set up the pump pin as an output
GPIO.setup(pump_pin, GPIO.OUT)

try:
    while True:
        # Turn the pump ON for 5 seconds
        GPIO.output(pump_pin, GPIO.HIGH)
        time.sleep(5)
        
        # Turn the pump OFF for 5 seconds
        GPIO.output(pump_pin, GPIO.LOW)
        time.sleep(5)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    GPIO.cleanup()
```

In this example, the pump is connected to Raspberry Pi's GPIO pin 17. The `RPi.GPIO` library is used to control the pump pin, and the `time` library is used to introduce a delay.

### Example 3: Pump Control with ESP32 using MicroPython

This example demonstrates how to control the 6V Mini Dosing Pump using an ESP32 board and MicroPython.

```python
import machine
import utime

# Define the pump pin
pump_pin = machine.Pin(2, machine.Pin.OUT)

while True:
    # Turn the pump ON for 5 seconds
    pump_pin.value(1)
    utime.sleep(5)
    
    # Turn the pump OFF for 5 seconds
    pump_pin.value(0)
    utime.sleep(5)
```

In this example, the pump is connected to ESP32's GPIO pin 2. The `machine` library is used to control the pump pin, and the `utime` library is used to introduce a delay.
