INTRODUCTION

TO ARDUINO
ARDUINO
 Arduino is the go-to gear for artists, hobbyists, students, and anyone with a
gadgetry dream.

 Arduino rose out of another formidable challenge: how to teach students to

 With Arduino, you can control almost everything around you be it simple LED
or giant Robots.

ARDUINO
 Basically Arduino is Microcontroller.

 Microcontroller is microprocessor with memory, RAM and some other

 The Arduino Uno is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328 .

ARDUINO UNO
 What does it have?
 14 Digital In/Out pins (6 can be used as PWM)
 6 Analog Inputs
 A USB Connection
 A Power Jack
 Reset Button
 On-board LED
 SCL/SDA pins (Serial Clock/ Serial Data pins)

 In short, it contains everything needed to support the microcontroller;

HOW TO CODE IN ARDUINO
 You need to download Arduino IDE (Integrated Development Environment).
 Arduino IDE is available for all Mac, Windows.and Linux.

7
HOW TO CODE IN ARDUINO
 Once you have downloaded and
installed/extracted the folder,
you can directly run Arduino.exe,
which will take you to its IDE.
 The IDE will look like the shown
screenshot.

PROGRAM YOUR ARDUINO
 Before you start programming,
double check that correct board
is selected under Tools  Board.
 Now, you can start playing with
Arduino.

9
PROGRAM YOUR ARDUINO
 The Arduino Uno can be
programmed with the Arduino
software. Select "Arduino Uno
from the Tools > Board menu
(according to the microcontroller
on your board).
 All the peripheral connected
with Computers are using Serial
Port.
 You can check port for Arduino
Uno in Device Manger.

6 MAJOR CONCEPTS
 digitalWrite()
 analogWrite()
 digitalRead()
 If (statements) / Boolean
 analogRead
 Serial Communication

12
ANALOG VS DIGITAL
Microcontrollers are digital devices – ON or OFF. Also called – discrete.

Analog signals are anything that can be a full range of values.

5V 5V

0V 0V

13
ANALOG VS DIGITAL
Analog Sensors Digital Sensors
• Digital sensors are more
Sensors Variables straight forward than
Analog.
Mic soundVolume • No matter what the sensor
Photoresistor lightLevel there are only two settings:
On and Off
Potentiometer dialPosition
Temp Sensor temperature •Example, Push button, Switch
Flex Sensor bend
Accelerometer tilt/acceleration

14
SERIAL COMMUNICATION
 “Serial” because data is broken into bits, each sent one after another in a
single wire.

 Compiling turns your program into binary data (ones and zeros)

 Uploading sends the bits through USB cable to the Arduino

 The two LEDs near the USB connector blink when data is transmitted.
 RX blinks when the Arduino is receiving data.
 TX blinks when the Arduino is transmitting data
