Study Notes
Arduino Board Components
- Bus strips: connect the board to a power source and electronic components
- Terminal strips: plug in and connect various electronic components to each other
Power and Programming
- Arduino board can be powered through a USB port or a power port (AC-to-DC adapter or battery)
- USB port is a printer USB port used to load programs from Arduino IDE onto the Arduino board
- Power port: use a 2.1mm center-positive plug into the power jack
Memory and CPU
- Flash memory: 32KB, stores programs loaded from Arduino IDE
- RAM: 2KB, runtime memory
- CPU: Atmega328P, controls everything, fetches program instructions from flash memory, and runs them with RAM
Microcontroller
- Atmega328P is pre-programmed with bootloader, allowing direct upload of new Arduino programs without external hardware programmer
Digital Pins
- Digital pins (0-13): can be used as input or output pins
- When used as output, they act as a power supply source for connected components
Other Components
- Reset switch: sends a logical pulse to the reset pin, restarting the program from the start
- Crystal oscillator: quartz crystal oscillator, ticks 16 million times a second, performs one operation per tick
- USB interface chip: signal translator, converts USB level signals to a level understood by the Arduino UNO board
Resistors
- Fixed resistor: has a fixed, defined electrical resistance, not adjustable
- Variable resistor: electric resistance value can be adjusted
- Photoresistors: light-sensitive resistors, resistance decreases as light intensity increases
Jumper Wires
- Jumper wires: connect two points without soldering, have connector pins at each end
- Color coding:
- Black (or Blue): wire running directly to Ground (GND)
- Red: connected to a source of power (normally 3.3V)
