Intro to Arduino

This is an introduction to the physical computing platform known as the Arduino.  In this class we will be assembling our own Arduino clone on a standard hobby breadboard and doing several simple coding examples.  Examples will include blinking LEDs, PWM, switch debouncing and reading analog signals.  

 

This is the first class in a series of classes using the Arduino platform.  All students will receive a set of parts upon arrival that are theirs to keep.  These parts, once assembled, will be a fully functional Arduino clone that will be used in future lessons such as motor/servo control and advanced programming.


A laptop is required for this course.  In order to speed up the beginning of class, please make sure you have downloaded the following item.
