2. What is Arduino?
 Arduino is an open- source computer hardware and
software company, project and user community that
designs and manufactures microcontroller-based kits
for building systems consisting of digital devices,
interactive objects that can sense and control in the
physical world.

3. How to program Arduino?
 The Arduino Integrated Development Environment (IDE)
supports the C and C++ programming languages using
special rules of code organization.
 The Arduino IDE supplies a software library called
"Wiring" from the Wiring project, which provides many
common input and output procedures.

10. Program Structure
Setup( )
{
// A function that runs once at the start of a program and is used to
set //pinMode or initialize serial communication
}
loop( )
{
// This function includes the code to be executed continuously – reading
inputs, //triggering outputs, etc.
// This function is the core of all Arduino programs and does the bulk of
the //work.
}

11. Activity 1.1
Type : Team of 2 Duration : 15 Minutes
Use LED blink program from
example and upload it on the
ARDUINO board

12. Functions to handle digital I/O pinMode (pin, OUTPUT);
// make the digital pin either INPUT or OUTPUT
 digitalRead (pin);
//used to get the content on the pin which is
HIGH(1) or LOW(0)
 digitalWrite(pin, value)
//used to send HIGH(1) or LOW(0) value to a pin

13. Time Function
 delay(ms)
// waits for milli – seconds

14. /*….. Program to blink the LED on pin 13 …..*/
void setup( )
{
pinMode(13, OUTPUT); //Initialize the digital pin as output
}
void loop( )
{
digitalWrite(13, HIGH); // Turn the LED ON
delay(1000); // Wait for one second
digitalWrite(13, LOW); // Turn the LED OFF
delay(1000); // Wait for one second
}

15. Activity 1.2
Type : Team of 2 Duration : 10 Minutes
Modify the program to blink LED every 2
sec on pin 12.

16. Circuit for the LED
Cathode of
LED
Anode of LED

17. /*….. Program to blink the LED every 2 second on pin12*/
void setup( )
{
pinMode(12, OUTPUT); //Initialize the digital pin as output
}
void loop( )
{
digitalWrite(12, HIGH); // Turn the LED ON
delay(2000); // Wait for a two second
digitalWrite(12, LOW); // Turn the LED OFF
delay(2000); // Wait for a two second
}

18. Activity 1.3
Type : Team of 2 Duration : 15 Minutes
Modify the program to display the LED
state every 2 sec on Serial Monitor.

19. Serial communication with
ArduinoWhat is serial communication ?

20. The word serial means "one after the other."
 What is Baud rate ?
Number of symbols transferred per sec

21. Serial Display Functions
 Serial.begin(baud_rate)
//baud rate(characters per sec) between computer and
board is typically 9600 although you can work with
other speeds by changing settings of COM Port
 Serial.print(value),
//value could be any data and even string
 Serial.println(value)
//print in new line

22. Eg. Print INDIA on serial monitor
void setup( )
{
Serial.begin(9600);// 9600 is default baud rate of serial com
port of a computer
}
void loop( )
{
Serial.println(“INDIA”); // Send the value “INDIA”
}

23. Serial Monitor

24. /*….. Modify the program to blink on pin12 and display the LED state every 2 sec
on Serial Monitor…..*/
void setup( )
{
pinMode(12, OUTPUT); //Initialize the digital pin as output
Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop( )
{
digitalWrite(12, HIGH); // Turn the LED ON
Serial.println(“ON”); // Send the value “ON”
delay(2000); // Wait for a second
digitalWrite(12, LOW); // Turn the LED OFF
Serial.println(“OFF”); // Send the value “OFF”
delay(2000); // Wait for a second
}

25. Activity 1.4
Type : Team of 2 Duration : 25 Minutes
Modify the program to blink 10 times
per loop iteration and display no. of
loop iterations on serial monitor.

26. Looping Concept
//for loop concept
Syntax –
for(initialization ; condition; increment / decrement)
{
//code which you want to perform
}
Example : to print number from 1 to 10
for(int i=1;i<=10;i++)
{
Serial.println(i);
Serial.println(“INDIA”);
}

27. long int Count=0;
void setup( )
{
pinMode(12, OUTPUT); //Initialize the digital pin as output
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println(“count of iterations running are: “);
}
void loop( )
{
for (int i=1;i<=10;i++)
{
Serial.println(i);
digitalWrite(12, HIGH);
Serial.println(“ON”);
delay(1000); // wait for a second
digitalWrite(12, LOW);
 Serial.println(“OFF”);
delay(1000); // wait for a second
}
Count++;
 Serial.print(“Iteration:”);
Serial.println(Count);
}

28. Condition Statements
if(Condition 1)
{
//Statements
}
if(Condition 2)
{
//Statements
}
else
{
//Statements
}

29. Topic Learning Outcomes
