Introduction

Design, organize, and collaborate


Micro-Controller:

It is a micro-computer. As any
computer it has internal CPU, RAM,
IOs interface.
It is used for control purposes, and
for data analysis.

Famous microcontroller
manufacturers are MicroChip,
Atmel, Intel, Analog devices, and
more.
What is Arduino?

• A microcontroller board, contains on-


board power supply, USB port to
communicate with PC, and an Atmel
microcontroller chip.
• It simplify the process of creating any
control system by providing the standard
Arduino.

board that can be programmed and


connected to the system without the need
to any sophisticated PCB design and
implementation.
• It is an open source hardware, any one can
get the details of its design and modify it
or make his own one himself.
Arduino boards:

UNO Mega LilyPad

Arduino BT Arduino Nano Arduino Mini

Power Supply
Digital or Analog?
• All physical quantities are analog.
• Analog means that the quantity can take any value
between its
• minimum value and maximum value.
• Digital means that the quantity can take specific levels of
Digital and analog.

values with specific offset between each other.

• Ex: 1- Digital:
• English alpha consists of 26 letter, there is no letter
between A
• and B.
• - Square waves are Digital.
• Ex.: 2- Analog:
• Temperature, can take any value[-1,12.8,25.002,… etc.].
• - Sine waves are analog.
Sensors:
A device that transforms the physical quantity into electrical
value.
Ex.: Light sensor transduce the light into change in voltage or
resistance.

Data Types and operators
Integer: used with integer variables with value between
2147483647 and -2147483647.
Ex: int x=1200;
Character: used with single character, represent value from -
127 to 128.
Ex. char c=‘r’;
Long: Long variables are extended size variables for number
storage, and store 32 bits (4 bytes), from -2,147,483,648 to
2,147,483,647.
Ex. long u=199203;
Floating-point numbers can be as large as 3.4028235E+38
and as low as -3.4028235E+38. They are stored as 32 bits (4
bytes) of information.
Ex. float num=1.291; [The same as double type]

You may need to know about these typed: Array, Boolean, byte, etc. here.
Statement and operators:
Statement represents a command, it ends with ;
Ex:
int x;
x=13;
Operators are symbols that used to indicate a specific
function:
- Math operators: [+,-,*,/,%,^]
- Logic operators: [==, !=, &&, ||]
-Comparison operators: [==, >, <, !=, <=, >=]
Syntax:
; Semicolon, {} curly braces, //single line
comment, /*Multi-line comments*/
Statement and operators:
Compound Operators:
++ (increment)
-- (decrement)
+= (compound addition)
-= (compound subtraction)
*= (compound multiplication)
/= (compound division)
Control statements:
If Conditioning:
if(condition)
{
statements-1;
…
Statement-N;
}
else if(condition2)
{
Statements;
}
Else{statements;}
Control statements:
Switch case:
switch (var) {
case 1:
//do something when var equals 1
break;
case 2:
//do something when var equals 2
break;
default:
// if nothing else matches, do the default
// default is optional
}
Loop statements:
Do… while:
do
{
Statements;
}
while(condition); // the statements are run at least once.
While:
While(condition)
{statements;}
for
for (int i=0; i <= val; i++){
statements;
}

Use break statement to stop the loop whenever needed.


Code structure:
Void setup(){}
Used to indicate the initial values of system on starting.
Void loop(){}
Contains the statements that will run whenever the
system is powered after setup.
Input and output:
Led blinking example:
Used functions:
pinMode();
digitalRead();
digitalWrite();
delay(time_ms);
other functions:
analogRead();
analogWrite();//PWM.
Arduino IDE:
