Do you have a resistor in series with the LED?
Are you running it with sudo? I ran into a similar problem with C using the PWM with GPIO 18 in that I had a program using PWM with an LED circuit and my Raspberry Pi with Raspbian crashed every time I tried to run it.
Then I discovered I needed to use sudo to run the program because the wiringPi library required administrator or root access to the PWM hardware.
I am using the Osoyoo Raspberry Pi Starter Kit (see http://osoyoo.com/2016/04/12/raspberry-pi-3-s/) and the lessons on the Osoyoo web site. I am doing the C language examples with wiringPi library.
Sounds like a power problem to me. Get a bigger power source (1.5A)
And yes, have a 47Ohm resistor in series with the LED.
Hi,
apologies for a newcomer question, but I was unable to find example code how to pwmWrite to a LED. My setup looks correct, and running Sunfounder Python code (04_pwmLed.py from the Superkit 2 code snippets) lets the LED pulse as expected.
With WiringPi-Node, I'm running the following snippet on my Pi 3:
...which lights up the LED but as soon as I run it, my Rasperry Ext4 filesystem crashes and the only option is to pull the plug. Google results suggest that these Ext4 FS errors occur due to power supply issues - as they do not occur with the Python code, and it's an power supply coming with a standard Rasperry Pi kit, I'd assume it's not hardware related.
Any ideas what's wrong? Any initialisation I skipped? Any code samples I could try? Is there a repository of more WiringPi-Node examples? Any pointers are appreciated.
Thanks!
