   DATE:    04/07/12
   VERSION: 0.1

This is a simple example of how to use the HobbyComponents RGB LED module 
(HCARDU0021). The module has 3 separate LED's (Red, Green & Blue) which 
Can be individually driven by applying a voltage to the appropriate module pin. 
This example uses the standard Arduino analogWrite (PWM) function to cycle
through the full range of colours this module is capable of producing. 
Please be aware that this module does NOT include current limiting 
resistors and therefore you should not connect this module directly to the
Arduino DIO pins.

SENSOR PINOUT:

PIN 1: GREEN LED +Ve
PIN 2: RED LED +Ve
PIN 3: BLUE LED +Ve
PIN 4: GND
