Teaching The Arduino
• To create a new program…
Select File from the Arduino Program menu
• Then select Examples
• Then select Basics
• Then select BareMinimum
Teaching The Arduino
• You will see this empty
template
• Code that you put
inside the setup()
routine is executed
only once on startup
• Code that you put
inside the loop()
routine is executed
repeatedly forever
Teaching The Arduino
• There is a light (LED)
on the Arduino board
that is connected to
pin 13
• The pinMode
command tells the
Arduino that you will
be controlling pin 13
for OUTPUT
Teaching The Arduino
• The digitalWrite
command sends a
HIGH signal to pin 13.
• HIGH turns the LED
on
Teaching The Arduino
• Press the upload button
- to upload the
program to the Arduino
• After uploading, the
Arduino will
automatically run the
program
• Notice the LED is
turned on
Teaching The Arduino
• Add a second
digitalWrite
command to send a
LOW signal to pin 13.
• LOW turns the LED
off
Teaching The Arduino
• Press the upload button
- to run the program
again with the changes
• What happened?
Teaching The Arduino
• Need to add a delay
command after each
digitalWrite to make
the Arduino wait a bit
• The number in the
delay command is the
number of
milliseconds
Teaching The Arduino
• Press the upload button
- to run the program
again with the changes
• The LED will now turn
on for 1 second and
then off for another
second

that the LED blinks
like your heart beat
Blinking LED Experiment 2
• Modify the code so
that the LED blinks
like your heart beat
Controlling an External LED
• We will connect an external LED to pin 3
Parts needed:
• A LED
• A resistor (brown-green-brown)
• A breadboard
Light-Emitting Diode (LED)
Symbol
Long leg is positive
Short leg is negative
How To Blow Up a LED
• To turn on a LED, you need to connect power
to it:
• The positive (long) leg to 5V
• The negative (short) leg to ground (GND)
5V
Don’t do it!
How NOT To Blow Up a LED
• If too much current (power) goes through a
LED, you will blow up the LED right away
• So if you don’t want to blow up your LED,
you’ll need to reduce the current by using a
resistor
Resistors
• Resistors are used to reduce the amount of
current that flows through a circuit
Picture

Horizontal holes in Section 1 are connected
together. Usually used for +5V
Horizontal holes in Section 4 are connected
together. Usually used for GND
Breadboard
•
Vertical holes in Section 2 are connected together
•
Vertical holes in Section 3 are connected together
Power FROM the Arduino
• The Arduino board has a built-in 5V power
supply
• The pin labeled
5V is positive +
• The pins labeled
GND are –
Controlling an External LED
• Connect the + end (long
leg) of the LED to Digital
pin 3
• Connect the – end (short
leg) of the LED to a 150Ω
(brown-green-brown)
resistor
• Connect the other end of
the resistor to GND
Controlling an External LED
• Modify your code to
control pin 3 instead of
pin 13
• Upload and run your
code
Blinking LED Experiment 1
• Connect your LED to pin 7 instead of pin 3
• Modify your code to tell the Arduino that you
want to control the LED that is connected to
pin 7
• Run the program to see that you still get the
same result
• Notice that there are three places in the code
where the number 3 has to be changed to the
number 7
Blinking LED Experiment 2
• Instead of putting the
number 7 in several
lines, you can define a
variable (led) and
assign the value 7 to
it
• Now you just use the
variable led instead of
the number 7
Connection Example
Correct
Wrong
Resistor Experiment
• Replace the 150 (brown-green-brown)
resistor with another resistor.
• What happens to the LED?
• Try different resistor values and notice the
intensity of the LED.
Always use at least a 150 resistor,
otherwise your LED will be destroyed!
Resistor Color Code
Let there be Light!
• You can put the resistor at the + side of the
circuit and get the same result
330 

• So it’s OK as long as you
have a resistor in series with
the LED

Two LEDs
• Connect two LEDs to
the Arduino board
• One on pin 2 and the
second on pin 3
• Make sure you use a
resistor
Two LEDs
• Modify the code to
turn on and off both
LEDs at the same time
Two Flashing LEDs
• Modify the code to
turn on one LED at a
time
• The net effect is that
you’ll see the two
LEDs flash back and
forth
Don’t Be Afraid!
Of making a wrong connection.
Most of the time we’ll be working with low
voltages, i.e. less than 12 V DC.
So...
You are not going to hurt yourself
You are not going to blow up your house
The worse that can happen is you destroy
some components
•
•
•
Danger – 120V AC - Danger
•
•
The only thing that can kill you is if
you are not careful when you play
with 120V AC
i.e. electricity from a wall plug.
If you connect a piece of wire between
the two holes in the wall plug, you will be
dead before you finish reading this
sentence.
So don’t do it!
Don’t Do It!
•
•
I don’t mean that you cannot play with 120V
AC - you can, but be very VERY careful
What I mean is don’t connect a piece of wire
between the two holes in a wall plug

Electrical Power
•
•
•
All electronic circuits require electrical power
to operate
Digital circuits typically require a 5V DC
power source
Like a battery, a DC power source will always
have a positive (+) end and a negative (–) end
+5
Symbol
or
Power Supply
•
•
•
Power adapters have different voltages and
current ratings
Need one with 9V DC and at least 0.5A
(500mA)
9V batteries can also be used for small
circuits requiring low power
Power Supply
•
•
•
•
The plug
Symbol
– is usually referred to as “ground” or GND
Make sure you connect the + and – correctly
This is one main cause of destroying your
circuit.
Voltage Regulator
•
•
Use a voltage regulator to convert from 9V
DC down to 5V DC
Part number: 7805
Voltage Regulator Connections
Electrical Power
• To turn on any electronic device, you need to
connect to both the + and the – ends of the
power source
• Use wires to connect between the power
source and your device
• One main cause of destroying your circuit is
reversing the + and the – ends
Power TO the Arduino
• You can either plug in a 9V adapter or a USB
cable from a computer to the Arduino to
provide power to the Arduino
USB
9V adapter
Power FROM the Arduino
• The Arduino board has a built-in 5V voltage
regulator
• The pin labeled
5V is +
• The pins labeled
GND are –
Power FROM the Arduino
• The convention is to use
red for positive and
black for negative
• Connect a red wire from
the 5V pin to the top row
on the breadboard
• Connect a black wire from
the GND pin to the
bottom row on the
breadboard

Push Buttons
A push button is an on-off switch. Press to turn
on. Release to turn off. (There are some push
buttons that work the opposite, i.e. press to turn
off and release to turn on)
Push Buttons

Push Button Experiment
•
•
•
Push the button to turn on the LED
Release the button to turn off the LED
If the LED is always on, then you have used
the wrong legs of the push button. Turn it
around and try again
Blinking LED
• How do we make the LED blink?
• You can manually do that by pressing the
button to turn it on, then release the button to
turn it off, then on again, then off, on, off, on,
off, etc.
But that’s boring!
And your finger will get very tire very soon
• We’ll teach the Arduino to do that for us
Connection
• Connect the + end of
the LED to Digital pin 2
• Connect the – end of the
LED to a resistor and
then to GND
To Turn On A LED
Before
After
To Turn On A LED
• To turn on the LED, pin
2 must output 5V
• To turn off the LED, pin
2 must not output a
voltage, i.e. be at GND
• In digital circuits, we
often use “1” or “HIGH”
to mean 5V and “0” or
“LOW” for GND
Mini Las Vegas Lights
• Connect 5 LEDs to the Arduino.
• Use digital pins 2 to 6
• Use a 150Ω resistor for
all the LEDs
• Modify the code to
make the 5 LEDs come
on one at a time in
sequence

Fading Light
• You can control the brightness of a LED by
specifying how much power to provide to it
• This is done by using an analog signal instead
of a digital signal
Digital vs Analog Signals
•
•
•
•
•
A digital signal has only two values: high or low
High means full power (i.e. 5V)
Low means no power (i.e. 0V)
A LED is on if you give it 5V
A LED is off if you give it 0V
• An analog signal can be any value between 0V
and 5V
• So you can adjust the brightness of the LED by
giving it any value in between, say 3.2V
Fading Light
• The analog output pins on the Arduino board
are labeled with a ~ symbol
• They are pins 3, 5, 6, 9, 10 and 11
Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)
• To be precised, the Arduino Uno board does
not have true analog outputs
• It uses a method called Pulse Width
Modulation (PWM) to produce a similar effect
as an analog signal
• PWM turns on and off a digital signal at
different frequencies
Fading Light
• Connect a LED to pin 3
• Remember what you need to do?
• The long leg (+) of the LED to pin 3
• The short leg (-) of the LED to a resistor
• The other end of the resistor to GND
Fading Light
• Now type in this
program and run it
• Change the fadeValue
from 7 to some other
number between 0 and
255
• What do you notice?
Fading Light
• Use the for loop
command to tell
the computer to
automatically
change the
fadeValue
Fading Light
• Use two for loops to
make the LED fade
in and out
• The first for loop
makes the LED fade
in
• The second for loop
makes the LED fade
out
RGB LED
• A RGB LED is a LED
with three individual
color (red, green, blue)
LEDs built in.
• By controlling the
brightness of each
individual LED you
can get any color you
want
Red
positive
Blue positive
Green positive
Common negative
RGB LED
• The negative
connection for the
three LEDs are
connected in common.
• Connect the positive
end of each LED to a

Analog Input Experiment
• Modify the code so that the LED will turn on
when it is dark, and turn off when it is light
• Hint: Note the minimum and maximum values
of the sensor, then use the IF command to test
whether it is light or dark like this:
if (sensorValue < 500) {
digitalWrite(led, HIGH);
} else {
digitalWrite(led, LOW);

Why the Diode?
When a voltage is applied to a coil it creates a
magnetic field. When the voltage is removed the
magnetic field collapses and creates a reverse
polarity voltage and can be many times the value
of the original applied voltage. This transient
voltage pulse can damage other components in
the circuit. Having a reversed biased diode across
the coil allows the diode to conduct for reverse
polarity voltages and creates a 'short circuit'
across the coil that allows the pulse to be
dissipated in the resistance of the coil wiring.
