Basic Electrical knowledge
Resistor symbol
LED symbol, positive pin on the left,
negative pin on the right
Each electronic component has a schematic symbol, which is a simplified drawing
of the part. For resistors the symbol looks like this:
And the symbol for LED's look like this:
You can see that the resistor symbol is symmetric, just like resistors themselves.
The LED symbol, however, has an arrow thing going on. This is the direction in
which current flows. The little arrows that are coming out of the symbol indicate
that this is a diode that emits light.
Power and Ground symbols

Basic Electrical knowledge
The only thing we need to do now is indicate
how the LED and resistor are hooked up and
show the 5V and ground connections.
Next to symbols, we often write important
information like what the resistor value is,
what color and size the LED should be,
and the voltage associated with the power
supply.

temperature, according to a known function.
 A linear approximation is given by
 Where a is the temperature coefficient, T is the temperature in Kelvin
and R0 the resistance in a known temperature

motion
 Features
 Force
 Speed
 Torque
 Power
 Efficiency

DC motor
Force is produced (F=ILB)
due to the electric current in
a wire inside a magnetic field.
Proportional to the current,
therefore can be controlled by
potentiometer
Hard to control precisely

Servo motors
 A DC motor with a control circuit
 Servo motors are controlled by PWM through the
control pin

Servo motor control
#include <Servo.h>
Servo myservo; // create servo object to control a servo
void setup() {
int val = 180; // variable to control servo
myservo.attach(9); // pin 9 is a PWM pin
}
void loop() {
myservo.write(val); // constant servo speed
delay(15); // waits for the servo to get there
}

Stepper Motors
 motor controlled by a series of electromagnetic coils.
 The center shaft has a series of magnets mounted on it
 the coils are alternately given current or not, creating
magnetic fields which repulse or attract the magnets on the
shaft, causing the motor to rotate.
 allows for very precise control of the motor. it can be
turned in very accurate steps of set degree increments
 two basic types
 unipolar
 bipolar

Example: Unipolar stepper motor
 Four digital pins required to
control the motor
 Darlington transistor array
used for supplyingthe power
required

Stepper motor control
#include <Stepper.h> //the control sequence is in this library
const int stepsPerRevolution = 200; // motor-dependent
Stepper myStepper(stepsPerRevolution, 8, 9, 10, 11); //pins used
void setup() {
// set the speed at 60 rpm:
myStepper.setSpeed(60); //actually sets the delay between steps
}
void loop() {
// step one revolution in one direction:
myStepper.step(stepsPerRevolution);
delay(500);
}

Digital? Analog?

• Analog has many (infinite) values
• Computers don’t really do analog, they quantize
• Remember the 6 analog input pins---here’s how
they work

it’s either on or off, 1 or 0
 Internally, all
microprocessors are digital,
