Study Notes
Features of Arduino
- Arduino boards, such as the Arduino UNO R3, have multiple input and output pins for controlling devices like lights, alarms, and motors.
- Contains an ATmega chip that serves as the main microcontroller.
- USB port allows for code uploading, board communication, and power supply.
Power Specifications
- Vin pin: connects to an external power supply.
- GND pin: serves as the ground connection.
- SV pin: supplies 5 V to external devices.
- 3.3V pin: supplies 3.3 V to external devices.
- Secondary jack provides additional power; replaceable.
Practical Application
- Use a multimeter to measure voltage from the SV pin; start simulation to observe results.
- Basic circuit simulation in Tinkercad shows the process of turning an LED on/off through Arduino commands.
Code Execution and Logic
- Control structures like if statements and loops are fundamental for code execution.
