A word of caution: The Arduino boards are not storing states. This means that with every initialization the pins are set to off/low.

## Switch Configuration
## Building on top of the Arduino component
Support for switching pins is limited to high/on and low/off of the digital pins. PWM (pin 3,5,6,9,10, and 11 on a Arduino Uno) is not supported yet.
To enable the Arduino switch pins with Home Assistant, add the following section to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
switch:
platform: arduino
pins:
11:
name: Fan Office
type: digital
12:
name: Light Desk
type: digital
```
Configuration variables:
- **pins** array (*Required*): Pins to use.
- **name**: Name that will be used in the frontend for the pin.
- **type**: The type of the pin. At the moment only 'digital' is supported.
The digital pins are numbered from 0 to 13. The available pins are 2 till 13. For testing purposes you can use pin 13 because with that pin you can control the internal LED.
## Sensor Configuration
The sensor platform allow you to get an numerical values from an analog input pin. Usually between 0 and 1024.
To enable an Arduino sensor with Home Assistant, add the following section to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
platform: arduino
pins:
1:
name: Door switch
type: analog
0:
name: Brightness
type: analog
```
Configuration variables:
- **pins** array (*Required*): Pins to use.
- **name**: Name that will be used in the frontend for the pin.
- **type**: The type of the pin. At the moment only 'analog' is supported.
The 6 analog pins are numbered from A0 to A5.
