What is a Microcontroller

A small computer on a single chip


containing a processor, memory, and input/output
Typically "embedded" inside some device that they
control

What is a Development
Board
A printed circuit
board designed to
facilitate work
with a particular
microcontroller.

Typical components include:


power circuit
programming interface
basic input; usually buttons and
LEDs
I/O pins

Arduino Development Board


PWR IN

USB (to Computer)


RESET

I2C

POWER
5V / 3.3V / GND

Digital I\O

1. Download & install the Arduino environment
(IDE)
2. Connect the board to your computer via the
UBS cable
3. If needed, install the drivers (not needed in lab)
4. Launch the Arduino IDE
5. Select your board
6. Select your serial port
7. Open the blink example
8. Upload the program

A Little Bit About


Programming

Code is case
sensitive
Statements are
commands and
must end with a
semi-colon
Comments
follow a // or
begin with /*
and end with */
loop and setup

Terminology

Digital I/0
www.mikroe.com/chapters/view/1

pinMode(pin, mode)

Sets pin to either INPUT or OUTPUT

digitalRead(pin)

Reads HIGH or LOW from a pin

digitalWrite(pin, value)
Writes HIGH or LOW to a pin

Electronic stuff

Output pins can provide 40 mA of current


Writing HIGH to an input pin installs a 20K

Arduino Timing
delay(ms)
Pauses for a few milliseconds

delayMicroseconds(us)
Pauses for a few microseconds

Variables
Basic variable types:
Boolean
Integer
Character

Declaring Variables
Boolean: boolean
variableName;
Integer: int variableName;
Character: char
variableName;
String: stringName [ ];

Assigning Variables
Boolean: variableName =
true;
or variableName = false;
Integer: variableName =
32767;
or variableName = -32768;
Character: variableName =
A;

Variable Scope
Where you declare your variables
matters

Setup
void setup ( ) { }

The setup function comes before


the loop function and is
necessary
for all Arduino sketches

If Statements
if ( this is true ) { do this; }

If
if ( this is true ) { do this; }

Conditional
if ( this is true ) { do this; }

Action
if ( this is true ) { do this; }

Else
else { do this; }
