Project Arduino – Serial Monitor
Intro Serial printing on Arduino is a powerful tool that enables the communication between an Arduino microcontroller and a computer over a serial link. This feature is often used for debugging and monitoring the behavior of an Arduino program. To utilize serial printing, the first step is to establish...
Project Arduino – Ohm’s law
Ohm’s law is a fundamental principle in electrical engineering that relates the voltage, current, and resistance of a circuit. It states that the current through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage across it and inversely proportional to its resistance. The formula is V = IR, where V...
Project Arduino – Floating Digital Port
Defining a digital port as INPUT on an Arduino microcontroller can cause issues with static energy because when a digital port is set as an input, it becomes high impedance, meaning it does not have a strong connection to either ground or the voltage supply. This high-impedance state can...
Project Arduino – Components
Semi-Conductors A semiconductor is a material that can act like both a conductor and an insulator. This makes it useful for making electronic devices like transistors and computer chips. By adding tiny amounts of other materials to the semiconductor, we can control how it conducts electricity and use it...
Project Arduino – Boards
If you’re interested in electronics and programming, Arduino is a great platform to explore. I started my journey by getting an Arduino Uno board and some basic components, such as LEDs, resistors, and jumper wires. If you’re just starting out, I recommend getting an Arduino Uno as it is...
