2. 2. What is a Microcontroller (C, MCU) Computer on a single integrated chip Processor (CPU) Memory (RAM / ROM / Flash) I/O ports (USB, I2C, SPI, ADC) Common microcontroller families: Intel: 4004, 8008, etc. Atmel: AT and AVR Microchip: PIC ARM: (multiple manufacturers) Used in: Cellphones, Toys Household appliances Cars Cameras
3. 3. Arduino Overview The Arduino microcontroller is an easy to use yet powerful single board computer that has gained considerable traction in the hobby and professional market. The Arduino is open-source, which means hardware is reasonably priced and development software is free. The Arduino project was started in Italy to develop low cost hardware for interaction design. The Arduino hardware comes in several flavors. In the United States, Sparkfun (www.sparkfun.com) is a good source for Arduino hardware. With the Arduino board, you can write programs and create interface circuits to read switches and other sensors, and to control motors and lights with very little effort.
4. 4. Continue The Arduino programming language is a simplified version of C/C++. If you know C, programming the Arduino will be familiar. If you do not know C, no need to worry as only a few commands are needed to perform useful functions. An important feature of the Arduino is that you can create a control program on the host PC, download it to the Arduino and it will run automatically. Remove the USB cable connection to the PC, and the program will still run from the top each time you push the reset button. Remove the battery and put the Arduino board in a closet for six months. When you reconnect the battery, the last program you stored will run. This means that you connect the board to the host PC to develop and debug your program, but once that is done, you no longer need the PC to run the program.

30. 30. Pins on Arduino Starting clockwise from the top center: Analog Reference pin (orange) Digital Ground (light green) Digital Pins 2-13 (green) Digital Pins 0-1/Serial In/Out - TX/RX (dark green) - These pins cannot be used for digital i/o (digitalRead and digitalWrite) if you are also using serial communication (e.g. Serial.begin). Reset Button - S1 (dark blue) In-circuit Serial Programmer (blue-green) Analog In Pins 0-5 (light blue) Power and Ground Pins (power: orange, grounds: light orange) External Power Supply In (9-12VDC) - X1 (pink) Toggles External Power and USB Power (place jumper on two pins closest to desired supply) - SV1 (purple) USB (used for uploading sketches to the board and for serial communication between the board and the computer; can be used to power the board) (yellow)
31. 31. Digital Pins In addition to the specific functions listed below, the digital pins on an Arduino board can be used for general purpose input and output via the pinMode(), digitalRead(), and digitalWrite() commands. Each pin has an internal pull-up resistor which can be turned on and off using digitalWrite() (w/ a value of HIGH or LOW, respectively) when the pin is configured as an input. The maximum current per pin is 40 mA.
32. 32. Serial: 0 (RX) and 1 (TX). Used to receive (RX) and transmit (TX) TTL serial data. On the Arduino Diecimila, these pins are connected to the corresponding pins of the FTDI USB-to-TTL Serial chip. On the Arduino BT, they are connected to the corresponding pins of the WT11 Bluetooth module. On the Arduino Mini and LilyPad Arduino, they are intended for use with an external TTL serial module (e.g. the Mini-USB Adapter). External Interrupts: 2 and 3. These pins can be configured to trigger an interrupt on a low value, a rising or falling edge, or a change in value. See the attachInterrupt() function for details. PWM: 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, and 11. Provide 8-bit PWM output with the analogWrite() function. On boards with an ATmega8, PWM output is available only on pins 9, 10, and 11. Reset: 7. (Arduino BT-only) Connected to the reset line of the bluetooth module. SPI: 10 (SS), 11 (MOSI), 12 (MISO), 13 (SCK). These pins support SPI communication, which, although provided by the underlying hardware. It allow serial communication with another interface by connecting it serially. LED: 13. On the Diecimila and LilyPad, there is a built-in LED connected to digital pin 13. When the pin is HIGH value, the LED is on, when the pin is LOW, it's off.
33. 33. Analog Pins In addition to the specific functions listed below, the analog input pins support 10-bit analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) using the analogRead() function. Most of the analog inputs can also be used as digital pins: analog input 0 as digital pin 14 through analog input 5 as digital pin 19. Analog inputs 6 and 7 (present on the Mini and BT) cannot be used as digital pins. I2C: 4 (SDA) and 5 (SCL). Support I2C (TWI) communication using the Wire library
34. 34. Power Pins VIN (sometimes labelled "9V"). The input voltage to the Arduino board when it's using an external power source (as opposed to 5 volts from the USB connection or other regulated power source). You can supply voltage through this pin, or, if supplying voltage via the power jack, access it through this pin. Note that different boards accept different input voltages ranges, please see the documentation for your board. Also note that the LilyPad has no VIN pin and accepts only a regulated input. 5V. The regulated power supply used to power the microcontroller and other components on the board. This can come either from VIN via an on-board regulator, or be supplied by USB or another regulated 5V supply. 3V3. (Diecimila-only) A 3.3 volt supply generated by the on- board FTDI chip. GND. Ground pins.
35. 35. Other Pins AREF. Reference voltage for the analog inputs. It provide the analog reference voltage for analog to digital conversion Reset. (Diecimila-only) Bring this line LOW to reset the microcontroller. Typically used to add a reset button to shields which block the one on the board.

37. 37. Function of Each block USB Plug: By using this plug we can download hex file of our program by connecting it with PC. It also provide supply to arduino board. This USB plug is connected with FTDI Chip internally FTDI Chip: This chip is nothing but voltage level converter chip. This chip is used to convert USB voltage level to TTL level and vice versa. Digital I/O and PWM section: This section is used as for general purpose input output usage. By using this section we can perform digital input and output functions. In this section some pins are also used as PWM output pins. It is used for PWM based application like servo motors.
38. 38. Continue Serial Tx and Rx Section: These two pins are used for serial communication in arduino. It is internally connected with USB plug through FTDI chip. Power Supply: Power supply section provide different voltage level to different part of arduino board. This part contain bridge rectifier and voltage regulator. AVR Atmega CPU: This block is the heart of the controller. Generally Atmega 8, Atmega 16, Atmega 32, Atmega 328 controller are used in arduino board. This block execute all the fuctions that written in arduino program. SPI Interface section: This section is used for serial peripheral interfacing. Power Pins section: This section include various voltage level pins including ground pins. Analog input section: We know that Atmega 8 CPU has inbuilt 6 channel 10 bit ADC. This ADC can convert analog data from analog pin into digital. So, for taking analog value for digital conversion we have to use this section.

45. 45. Comments Comments can be anywhere Comments created with // or /* and */ // is used for single line comment. /* */ is used for multiline comments Comments do not affect code You may not need comments, but think about the community!
46. 46. //- Single line comment /* */ - Multiline comment { } used to define a block of code that starts and ends. ; - used to define the end of a line of code. Programming Symbols
47. 47. Math Operators = (assignment) makes something equal to something else. For example, x = 10*2, thus x = 20. % (modulo) this gives the remainder when one number is divided by another. For example 12 % 10 gives 2. + (addition) - (subtraction) * (multiplication) / (division)
48. 48. Comparison Operators These are used to make logical comparisons. == (equal to) - For example 12==10 is FALSE and 12 ==12 is TRUE. != (not equal to) - For example 12!=10 is TRUE and 12!=12 is FALSE. < (less than) > (greater than)
49. 49. Control Structures These execute code based on CONDITIONS. Here are just a few. if(condition) { } else if (condition) { } else(condition) { } This will execute the code between the curly braces if the condition is true, and if not test the condition of the else if. If that is false , the else code will execute. for (int i =0; i < #repeats; i ++) { } Used when you would like to repeat a line of code a specific # of times. Often called a FOR LOOP.
