Types of Arduino Boards 12. 3.3V Pin – This pin supplies 3.3 volts of power to
your projects
1. Arduino Uno 13. 5V Pin – This pin supplies 5 volts of power to your
- One of the most popular Arduino boards out projects
there is the Arduino Uno.
- it remains to be the most actively used and 14. Ground Pins – There are a few ground pins on the
most widely documented on the market. Arduino and they all work the same
15. Analog Pins – These pins can read the signal from an
analog sensor and convert it to digital.
Arduino Power Supply
- needs a power source in order for it to operate
- using a 9V battery pack to give it juice. The last
method would be to use a 9V AC power supply
Arduino Breadboard
- This device allows you to prototype your
Arduino project without having to permanently
solder the circuit together.
- Using a breadboard allows you to create
Board Breakdown temporary prototypes and experiment with
different circuit designs
Here are the components that make up an Arduino
board and what each of their functions are. Tools Needed
1. Reset Button – This will restart any code that is Needle-nose Pliers
loaded to the Arduino board Wire Strippers
Precision Screwdriver Set
2. AREF – Stands for “Analog Reference” and is used to Flush Cutters
set an external reference voltage Fine Tip Straight Tweezers
Digital Multimeter
3. Ground Pin – There are a few ground pins on the
Soldering Iron
Arduino and they all work the same
Panavise Jr
4. Digital Input/Output – Pins 0-13 can be used for Solder Sucker
digital input or output
Arduino Shields
5. PWM – The pins marked with the (~) symbol can
- If you want to add a very specific functionality
simulate analog output
to your Arduino, you will need to use a shield.
6. USB Connection – Used for powering up your Arduino - It plug into the top of the Arduino board and
and uploading sketches can add capabilities such as WiFi, Bluetooth,
GPS and much more.
7. TX/RX – Transmit and receive data indication LEDs
Examples:
8. ATmega Microcontroller – This is the brains and is WiFi Shield
where the programs are stored LCD Shield
GPS Logger Shield
9. Power LED Indicator – This LED lights up anytime the
MP3 Music Maker Shield
board is plugged in a power source
Ethernet Shield
10. Voltage Regulator – This controls the amount of Motor/Stepper/Servo Shield
voltage going into the Arduino board
Arduino Sensor
11. DC Power Barrel Jack – This is used for powering - If you want your Arduino to sense the world
your Arduino with a power supply around it, you will need to add a sensor.
Below you will find some of the commonly used sensors
in projects.
