Here are a few code examples that demonstrate how to use this component in different contexts:### Example 1: Basic Voltage Divider Circuit with ArduinoIn this example, we'll use the 47k ohm resistor to create a simple voltage divider circuit to measure the voltage across a sensor.Circuit DiagramConnect the 47k ohm resistor (R1) between the positive leg of the sensor (e.g., a photodiode) and the positive rail (VCC) of the Arduino board.
Connect a 10k ohm resistor (R2) between the negative leg of the sensor and the analog input pin (A0) of the Arduino board.
Connect the sensor to a power source (e.g., 5V).Arduino Code
```c++
const int sensorPin = A0; // Analog input pin
int sensorValue = 0; // Variable to store sensor readingvoid setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
}void loop() {
sensorValue = analogRead(sensorPin);
float voltage = sensorValue (5.0 / 1023.0);
Serial.print("Sensor voltage: ");
Serial.println(voltage, 2);

sensor_pin = machine.Pin(32, machine.Pin.IN)
esp32_pin = machine.Pin(15, machine.Pin.IN)while True:
# Read the sensor value
sensor_value = sensor_pin.value()# Attenuate the signal using the 47k ohm resistor
attenuated_value = sensor_value (5.0 / 3.3) # assume 3.3V input# Print the attenuated value
print("Attenuated sensor value: ", attenuated_value)
utime.sleep(1)
