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 create electronics,
fast.
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 peripheral connected
with it.
The Arduino Uno is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328 . The ATmega328 has
Flash memory of 32 KB (with 0.5 KB used for the bootloader). It also has 2 KB of SRAM and 1
KB of EEPROM

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; simply connect it to a
computer with a USB cable or power it with a AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get started.

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

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.

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.

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

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

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
