Arduino Basics: Intro & Projects

The document introduces Arduino by explaining that it is an open-source prototyping platform that can read inputs and produce outputs. It describes the Arduino Uno board, noting its microcontroller, pins, memory, and voltage. It also lists some other Arduino boards and directs the reader to the Arduino website for more products. Finally, it explains that the Arduino IDE is used to write code in C/C++ and compile/upload programs to the Arduino's flash memory.

Arduino Bootcamp : Learning Through

Projects
Introduction to Arduino
What is Arduino?
• Open-Source prototyping platform

• Can read inputs (light on a sensor, voltage, temperature change)


and turn it into an output (activate a motor, turn on an LED, publish
twitter post)

• Easy to use for beginners

• You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of instructions


to the micro-controller on the board

• https://www.arduino.cc/
Arduino Uno
• Board based on the
ATmega328P *micro-controller

• Has 14 digital input/output pins

• 6 analog input pins

• 16 MHz quartz crystal

• 32K flash memory

• USB connection

• DC power jack

• Operating Voltage 5V
*A micro-controller is a small computer on a single integrated circuit containing a processor core, memory, and programmable
input/output peripherals.
Types of Arduino

Arduino Mega
Arduino Uno

Arduino Yun
Arduino Gemma

Using the Arduino IDE

• In order to upload programs to the Arduino, you


need the Arduino IDE (Integrated Development
Environment)

• Code can written in C or C++

• Programs are compiled and uploaded to the on-


chip flash memory
Summary
• In this lesson you learnt:

• What is the Arduino

• Some characteristics of the Arduino Uno

• Some of the other flavors of Arduino

• Became familiar with the Arduino Website

• How programs get loaded onto Arduino
