Install the USB driver to connect the web editor to the USB port, enabling code download and debugging information from the board, with Windows and Mac installation steps.
Navigate the create web editor, explore the sketchbook, and learn how setup and loop run on the UNO, connect pin 13 to an LCD, and consult the language reference.
Wire a potentiometer to an Arduino Uno and read analog input on pin A0; convert 0-5 V to 0-1023 with analogRead and display values on the onboard LCD.
Explore serial debugging on the Arduino Uno by configuring the serial port, establishing a USB connection, and printing a potentiometer sensor value to the serial monitor.
Determine the resonant frequency of the piazza by displaying sensor frequency as you rotate the knob, then verify measurements with an oscilloscope using a probe on pin three.
This course shows you how to get an Arduino developer account, install the required drivers and use the Editor tools on your MAC/PC and teaches you how to write programs and download them on the Arduino UNO circuit board. If you are a beginner, that is OK because I will start from the very begining explaining along the way as you build up the knowledge to write your own well structured programs. If you are an experienced programmer that is new to Arduino you can also get a lot out of this class because you can skip the trial and error phase I went through figuring out how all this works. So what are you waiting for, let's get programming!
