Code Examples
### Example 1: Basic On/Off Control using Arduino
This example demonstrates how to control the DC Submersible Aquarium Pump using an Arduino board.
Hardware Requirements
Arduino Board (e.g., Arduino Uno)
 DC Submersible Aquarium Pump
 Breadboard and jumper wires
Software Requirements
Arduino IDE
Code
```c
const int pumpPin = 9;  // Pin connected to the pump
void setup() {
  pinMode(pumpPin, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
  // Turn the pump on for 10 seconds
  digitalWrite(pumpPin, HIGH);
  delay(10000);
// Turn the pump off for 5 seconds
  digitalWrite(pumpPin, LOW);
  delay(5000);
}
```
Explanation
In this example, we connect the pump to digital pin 9 of the Arduino board. We set the pin as an output in the `setup()` function. In the `loop()` function, we turn the pump on by setting the pin high for 10 seconds, then turn it off by setting the pin low for 5 seconds. This creates a basic on/off cycle for the pump.
### Example 2: PWM Control using Raspberry Pi and Python
This example demonstrates how to control the DC Submersible Aquarium Pump using a Raspberry Pi and Python.
Hardware Requirements
Raspberry Pi Board (e.g., Raspberry Pi 4)
 DC Submersible Aquarium Pump
 Breadboard and jumper wires
Software Requirements
Raspbian OS
 Python 3.x
Code
```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:
        # Set the pump to 50% duty cycle (half speed)
        GPIO.PWM(pump_pin, 50).start(50)
        time.sleep(5)
# Set the pump to 100% duty cycle (full speed)
        GPIO.PWM(pump_pin, 100).start(100)
        time.sleep(5)
# Turn the pump off
        GPIO.output(pump_pin, GPIO.LOW)
        time.sleep(5)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    GPIO.cleanup()
```
Explanation
In this example, we use the RPi.GPIO library to control the pump. We set up the pump pin as an output and use the `GPIO.PWM` function to create a PWM signal. We then set the duty cycle to 50% for 5 seconds, 100% for 5 seconds, and turn the pump off for 5 seconds. This creates a simple PWM control example for the pump.
Note: Make sure to adjust the pin numbers and voltage levels according to your specific setup and requirements. Additionally, ensure proper safety precautions when working with electrical components and water.
