Define microcontrollers and contrast them with microprocessors, noting that microcontrollers integrate processors, memory, and programmable input-output peripherals on one chip, and are used in embedded systems and control applications.
Arduino is an open source hardware platform for electronics used by students, teachers, makers, and hobbyists. Explore Uno, Leonardo, Nano boards, shields, and the Arduino IDE for coding in C.
Explore a curated collection of Arduino boards, including original and compatible clones, nano and ethernet-enabled models, plus a linux-capable single-board computer with wifi.
Compare Arduino Uno R3 and Raspberry Pi 3 B Plus, showing Arduino as a microcontroller with GPIO and no built‑in network, versus Raspberry Pi as a full computer with wifi.
Learn how to use a fully transparent Uno case compatible with Arduino boards sharing the same layout, including opening, inserting, and securing the board and accessing input-output pins.
Discover how the holder secures Raspberry Pi, Arduino, and Arduino Mega boards for stable prototyping, with screws and a breadboard area for organized projects.
Build a visual SOS beacon with an Arduino and LED, encoding SOS in Morse code using a custom flash function and a 270 ohm resistor.
Initialize fourteen digital i/o pins as outputs and create a chaser effect by flashing leds in sequence using a flash function with an adjustable duration.
Create a dual chaser in Arduino by running two LEDs in opposite directions, using the same flash function and loop structure, and upload the code to the Arduino board.
Explore seven-segment LED modules, including the seven segments labeled a to g and the decimal point, and compare common cathode and common anode types with their pins.
Connect and power the seven segment common cathode lcd display with a power supply and jumper wires, then test each segment and the decimal point.
Wire and drive an LED bar graph with Arduino, declare and initialize pins as outputs, then implement a flash function and a looping chaser effect with precise timing.
Declare red, green, and blue as integers, map them to pins 2, 1, and 0 on Arduino, configure outputs, and use high and low to display colors, compile and upload.
Discover Arduino Pro Mini specs: 328 chip, 8 or 16 MHz, 3.3/5 V, 14 digital I/O, 6 analog pins, 32 kb flash, 1 kb RAM, and FT232 FTDI breadboard compatibility.
Compare uart and usart by contrasting asynchronous baud-rate transmission with synchronous clocked transfer, noting pre-shared baud rate versus clock-derived data and their impact on range and speed.
Explore the spi protocol, where a master communicates with slaves using separate slave select lines or a daisy chain. See practical applications from sensors and ADCs to LCDs and DACs.
Explore how Arduino uses serial, SPI, and I2C pins, identifying serial pins 0 and 1 and SPI/I2C pins 10–13, with diagrams and practical interface details.
Learn to connect an I2C LCD to an Arduino using the Liquid Crystal I2C library, address 0x27, initialize a 16x2 display, print and scroll text, and display serial input.
Explore max7219 based displays, wiring vcc, ground, and data pins, and learn daisy chaining to drive multiple seven-segment and character displays from a microcontroller such as a Raspberry Pi.
