 Arduino Yun

Arduino YÚN is the perfect

board to use when designing
connected devices and,
more in general, Internet of
Things projects. It combines
the power of Linux with the
ease of use of Arduino.
 Arduino MKR Zero

Arduino MKR Zero is a

development board for music
makers! With an SD card holder and
dedicated SPI interfaces (SPI1), you
are able to play music files without
extra hardware.
 Arduino Ethernet Rev 3

The Arduino Ethernet is a

microcontroller board based on the
ATmega328. It has 14 digital
input/output pins, 6 analog inputs,
a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a RJ45
connection, a power jack, an ICSP
header, and a reset button.
It has an Ethernet connection and
a micro SD card reader

Step 1 − First you must have your Arduino board (Arduino Uno Board)
and a USB cable.
 Arduino - Installation
Step 2 − Download Arduino IDE Software.
Arduino - Installation
Step 3 − Power up your board.
Step 4 − Launch Arduino IDE.
Step 5 − Open your first project.

Arduino - Installation
Step 6 − Select your Arduino board.

Arduino - Installation
Step 7 − Select your serial port.

Arduino - Installation
Step 8 − Upload the program to your board.

Arduino - Installation
• Verify / Upload - compile and upload your code to your
Arduino Board .
• Select Board & Port - detected Arduino boards
automatically show up here, along with the port number .
• Sketchbook - here you will find all of your sketches locally
stored on your computer . Additionally, you can sync with
the Arduino Cloud, and also obtain your sketches from the
online environment .
• Boards Manager - browse through Arduino & third party
packages that can be installed .
• Library Manager - browse through thousands of
Arduino libraries, made by Arduino & its community .
• Debugger - test and debug programs in real time .
• Search - search for keywords in your code .
• Open Serial Monitor - opens the Serial Monitor tool,
as a new tab in the console .
• Serial Plotter is one of the tools in Arduino IDE .
Arduino can read the temperature, humidity or any
kind of sensor data, and send it to Serial Plotter .

Three main parts of Arduino Program

• Structure
• Values
• Functions
 Three main parts of Arduino Program
• Software structure consist of two main functions
Arduino Program Structure

Setup( ) function
• Executed right after power-up or reset.
• Executed only one time.
• Used to initialize variables, pin modes, start using
libraries.

Void means that it runs some code, then when it is done,

leaves the function and goes back to where it was called.
 setup()
Arduino Program Structure

Baud Rate- the serial port is capable of transferring a maximum of 9600 bits per second.

The higher a baud rate goes, the faster data is sent/received, but there are limits to how
fast data can be transferred. You usually won't see speeds exceeding 115200 - that's fast
for most microcontrollers.
 Three main parts of Arduino Program
Arduino Program Structure

• Software structure consist of two main functions

Loop( ) function
• Executed right after setup code.
• Executed repeatedly (infinitely).
• Used to do main task of application.

 function
Arduino Program Structure

A function is a block of code that has a name and a

block of statements that are executed when the
function is called.

type functionName (parameters)

{
statements;
}
*Parameters are the types of data the function take as an input. (pinMode, High)
 function example: int delayVal ()
Arduino Program Structure

int delayVal ()
{
int v; // create temporary variable 'v'
v = analogRead(pot); // read potentiometer value
v /= 4; // converts 0 -1023 to 0 -255
return v; // return final value
}
 {} curly braces/brackets
Arduino Program Structure

Curly braces (also referred to as just "braces" or "curly

brackets") define the beginning and end of function
blocks and statement blocks such as the void loop()
function and the for and if statements.
type function()
{
statements;
}
 ; semicolon
Arduino Program Structure

A semicolon must be used to end a statement and

separate elements of the program. A semicolon is also
used to separate elements in a for loop.

int x = 13; // declares variable 'x' as the integer 13

 /*… */ multi-line or block comments
Arduino Program Structure

Block comments, or multi -line comments, are areas of

text ignored by the program and are used for large text
descriptions of code or comments that help others
understand parts of the program.

/* this is an enclosed block comment don’t forget

the closing comment - they have to be balanced! */
 // Single line comments
Arduino Program Structure

Single line comments begin with // and end with the

next line of code. Like block comments, they are ignored
by the program and take no memory space.

// this is a single line comment
