3. DEFINITION
“Arduino is an open-source physical computing platform based
on a simple i/o board and a development environment that
implements the Processing / Wiring language. Arduino can be
used to develop stand-alone interactive objects or can be
connected to software on your computer.“
In General, we use theArduino programming language (based on
Wiring) and theArduino Software (IDE), based on Processing.
Arduino has been used in thousands of different projects and
applications.
TheArduino software is easy-to-use for beginners.
It runs on Mac, Windows, and Linux.
Programming language is easy.
4. TYPESOFARDUINO
1. Arduino uno
This is the latest revision of
the basicArduino USB
board.
It connects to the computer
with a standard USB cable
and contains everything else
you need to program and use
the board.
It is similar to the Due
milanove, but has a different
USB-to-serial chip the
ATMega8U2,and newly
designed labeling to make
inputs andoutputs easier to
identify.
5. 2.Arduino Mega 2560
Alarger, more powerfulArduino
board.
It has extra digital pins, PWM
pins, analog inputs,serial ports,
etc.
The version of the Mega
released with the Uno, this
version features thAtmega2560,
which has twice the memory,
and uses the ATMega 8U2
forUSB-to-serial
communication.
6. 3.Arduino Duemilanove
The Duemilanove automatically selects the appropriate power supply
(USB or external power), eliminating the need for the powerselection
jumper found on previous boards.
It also adds an easiest to cut trace for disabling the auto-reset, along
with a solder jumper for re-enabling it.
7. Arduino Fio
AnArduino intended for use as a wireless node.
It has a header for an XBee radio, a connector for a LiPobattery, and a
battery charging circuit
8. The operating voltage is 5V
The recommended input voltage will range from 7v to 12V
The input voltage ranges from 6v to 20V
Digital input/output pins are 14
Analog i/p pins are 6
DC Current for each input/output pin is 40 mA
DC Current for 3.3V Pin is 50 mA
Flash Memory is 32 KB
SRAM is 2 KB
EEPROM is 1 KB
CLK Speed is 16 MHz
Features of Arduino UN0
9. Basic Terminologies In ARDUINO:
1.Analog to digital
converter(ADC)
The process ofAnalog to digital
conversion is shown in figure.
TheArduino has 10 bits of Resolution
when reading analog signals.
2.Pulse width modulation
(PWM)
The Arduino has 8bit of resolution, when
outputting a signal using PWM.The range
of output
voltage is from 0 to 5 Volts
2power 8=255 Increments
Average of on/off(digital signals to make
an average voltage),Duty cycle in 100%
of 5Volts
10. DC Motor Interfacing With Arduino
ADC motor (Direct Current motor) is
the most common type of motor.
DC motors normally have just two
leads, one positive and one negative.
If you connect these two leads directly
to a battery, the motor will rotate.
If you switch the leads, the motor will
rotate in the opposite direction.
11. RC car motor interfacing with Arduino
This is an Arduino based, Bluetooth
controlled RC car. It is controlled by a
smart phone application.
Bluetooth controlled car is controlled
by using Android mobile phone
instead of any other method like
buttons, gesture etc.
Here only needs to touch button in
android phone to control the car in
forward, backward, left and right
directions. So here android phone is
used as transmitting device and
Bluetooth.
12. OTHERAPPLICATIONS OFARDUINO
Traffic Light Count Down Timer
Parking Lot Counter
Weighing Machines
Medical Instrument
Emergency Light for Railways
Window Aircon controller
Washing Machine
Microwave Over
Security Systems
CCTV Switchers
13. Advantages
Simplified and user-friendly programming language
required
No additional programmer/burner hardware
for programming board
Portable
Low power consumption
Arduino boards are relatively inexpensive compared to other
microcontroller platforms.
The Arduino Software (IDE) runs on Windows, Macintosh OSX, and
Linux operating systems. Most microcontroller systems are limited to
Windows
14. Conclusion
This vocational training has helped me to understand the
deep knowledge of the manufacturing process of the
Arduino as well as they also get much knowledge about
Arduino.
I have the factual details about the need forArduino
