Introduction To Arduino

This document provides information about an introductory Arduino course taught at Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology. It discusses the Arduino board, its input/output parts, shields that can be added, common electronic components used with Arduinos, and basic electrical concepts like Ohm's Law, voltage, current and resistance. It also covers using a multimeter and prototyping circuits on a solderless breadboard.

Arduino Board
• Arduino means "strong friend" in Italian, Created in Ivrea, Italy
• in 2005 by Massimo Banzi & David Cuartielles
• Open Source Hardware
• Processor
• Coding is accessible & transferrable → (C++, Processing, java)
Arduino
• is the go-to gear for artists, hobbyists, students,
and anyone with a gadgetry dream.

• rose out of another formidable challenge: how to


teach students to create electronics and
programming fast.

Continuity – Is it a Circuit?
The word “circuit” is derived from the circle. An Electrical
Circuit must have a continuous LOOP from Power (Vcc) to
Ground (GND).

Continuity is important to make portions of circuits are


connect. Continuity is the simplest and possibly the most
important setting on your multi-meter. Sometimes we call
this “ringing out” a circuit.
Measuring Electricity – Voltage
Voltage is a measure of potential electrical energy. A
voltage is also called a potential difference – it is
measured between two points in a circuit – across
a device.
Measuring Electricity -- Current

Current is the measure of the rate of charge flow

In order to measure this – you must break the circuit or insert


the meter in-line (series).
Measuring Electricity -- Resistance

Resistance is the measure of how much opposition to current


flow is in a circuit.
Components should be removed entirely from the circuit to
measure resistance. Note the settings on the multi-meter.
Make sure that you are set for the appropriate range.

Prototyping Circuits Solderless Breadboard

• One of the most useful tools in an engineer or


Maker’s toolkit. The three most important things:
• A breadboard is easier than soldering
• A lot of those little holes are connected, which ones?
• Sometimes breadboards break
What’s a Breadboard?
Solderless Breadboard

•Each row (horiz.) of 5


holes are connected.

•Vertical columns – called


power bus are connected
