Start with Arduino Overview What is Arduino? Arduino is a tool for making computers that can sense and control more of the physical world than your desktop computer. It's an open-source physical computing platform based on a simple microcontroller board, and a development environment for writing software for the board. Arduino can be used to develop interactive objects, taking inputs from a variety of switches or sensors, and controlling a variety of lights, motors, and other physical outputs. Arduino projects can be stand-alone, or they can be communicate with software running on your computer (e.g. Flash, Processing, MaxMSP.) The boards can be assembled by hand or purchased preassembled; the open-source IDE can be downloaded for free. With this kit you can make a lot of interesting projuct.

HIGH | LOW It means a different meaning depending on whether a pin is set to INPUT or OUTPUT . HIGH: means high potential (+). INPUT | OUTPUT INPUT : to be in a high-impedance state OUTPUT : to be in a low-impedance state true | false false : is defined as 0 (zero). true : is often said to be defined as 1, which is correct, but true has a wider definition. Any integer which is non-zero is TRUE, in a Boolean sense. So -1, 2 and -200 are all defined as true, too, in a Boolean sense.

/*******************************************************************/ /*****************

Arduino Language ********************/

Structure： setup() The setup() function is called when a sketch starts. Use it to initialize variables, pin modes, start using libraries, etc. The setup function will only run once, after each powerup or reset of the Arduino board. loop() After creating a setup() function, which initializes and sets the initial values, the loop() function does precisely what its name suggests, and loops consecutively, allowing your program to change and respond. Use it to actively control the Arduino board.

Functions Digital I/O pinMode() Syntax : pinMode(pin, mode) Configures the specified pin to behave either as an input or an output. ( 0 ~ 13 ). Mode: either INPUT or OUTPUT digitalWrite() Syntax : digitalWrite(pin, value) Write a HIGH or a LOW value to a digital pin. HIGH or LOW . For example: light a LED.

Digital pins : ( 0 ~ 13 ). value:

digitalRead() Syntax : digitalWrite(pin, value) Reads the value from a specified digital pin, either HIGH or LOW. www.bestqshop.com

For example : read the digital sensor’s value.

Analog I/O analogRead() Syntax : int analogReference(pin) Reads the value from the specified analog pin. pins : 0 ~ 5 (Arduino Diecimila: 0 ~ 5 ; Arduino nano : 0～7). The Arduino board contains a 6 channel (8 channels on the Mini and Nano, 16 on the Mega) For example : in the analog sensor (10-bit analog to digital converter. ) , this means that it will map input voltages between 0 and 5 volts into integer values between 0 and 1023. analogWrite() // PWM Syntax : analogWrite(pin, value) Writes an analog value (PWM wave) to a pin. Pin : On most Arduino boards (those with the ATmega168 or ATmega328), this function works on pins 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, and 11. On the Arduino Mega, it works on pins 2 through 13. Older Arduino boards with an ATmega8 only support analogWrite() on pins 9, 10, and 11. value: the duty cycle: between 0 (always off) and 255 (always on). For example : in the analog sensor (10-bit analog to digital converter. ) , this means that it will map input voltages between 0 and 5 volts into integer values between 0 and 1023.

Time delay() Pauses the program for the amount of time (in miliseconds) specified as parameter. (There are 1000 milliseconds in a second.) delayMicroseconds() Pauses the program for the amount of time (in microseconds) specified as parameter. Math min() : Calculates the minimum of two numbers. max() : Calculates the maximum of two numbers. abs() : Computes the absolute value of a number. constrain() : Constrains a number to be within a range. map() : Re-maps a number from one range to another. pow() : Calculates the value of a number raised to a power. sqrt() : Calculates the square root of a number. /*****************************************************************************/

The wiring of LED

First Experiment: Prepare: 1 X

LED , 1 X 220-ohm resistor , some Jumper cable.

To build the circuit, grab an LED and attach its long, positive leg (called the anode) to pin 8 through a 220-ohm resistor . Connect the cathode (the shorter, negative leg) directly to ground.

Code :

Ebay store: b2cqshop ,

E-qstore

open the folder led1, and open the led1.pde

In the program below, the first thing you do is to initialize pin 8 as an output pin with the line pinMode(8, OUTPUT); In the main loop, you turn the LED on with the line: digitalWrite(8, HIGH); This supplies 5 volts to pin 8. That creates a voltage difference across the pins of the LED, and lights it up. Then you turn it off with the line: digitalWrite(8, LOW); That takes pin 8 back to 0 volts, and turns the LED off. In between the on and the off, you want enough time for a person to see the change, so the delay() commands tell the Arduino to do nothing for 1000 milliseconds, or one second. When you use the delay() command, nothing else happens for that amount of time. Once you've understood the basic examples, check out the BlinkWithoutDelay example to learn how to create a delay while doing other things. int ledPin=8 //设定控制 LED 的数字 IO 脚 void setup() { pinMode(ledPin,OUTPUT);//设定数字 IO 口的模式，OUTPUT 为输出 } void loop() { digitalWrite(ledPin,HIGH); //设定 PIN8 脚为 HIGH = 5V 左右 delay(1000); //设定延时时间，1000 = 1 秒 digitalWrite(ledPin,LOW); //设定 PIN8 脚为 LOW = 0V delay(1000); //设定延时时间，1000 = 1 秒 }

From the code , We can know that arduino language start with setup() function, and Use loop() function to actively control the Arduino board . setup() function is used to initialize variables, pin modes, start using libraries, etc. The setup function will only run once, after each powerup or reset of the Arduino board. loop() : After creating a setup() function, the loop() function does precisely what its name suggests, and loops consecutively, allowing your program to change and respond. Use it to actively control the Arduino board. In this First Experiment, you can find that the LED flashes per 1 second.

Second Experiment: Prepare: 6 X LED , 6 X 220-ohm resistor , some Jumper cable. To build the circuit, attach LED to digital IO pin 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 through 220-ohm resistor . www.bestqshop.com

Connect the cathode (the shorter, negative leg) directly to ground.

Code : open the folder led2, and open the led2.pde Usually, we can see Billboard flashing various colors. This is because a variety of LED in diferent localtion changing on or off . In this experiment, we use LEDs to show as the billboard. You can set the time and the sequence of flashing, so that it show different effect. //设置控制 Led 的数字 IO 脚 int Led1 = 1; int Led2 = 2; int Led3 = 3; int Led4 = 4; int Led5 = 5; int Led6 = 6; //led 灯花样显示样式 1 子程序 void style_1(void) { unsigned char j; for(j=1;j=1;j--)//每隔 200ms 依次熄灭 6~1 引脚相连的 led 灯 { digitalWrite(j,LOW);//熄灭 j 引脚相连的 led 灯 delay(200);//延时 200ms } } //灯闪烁子程序 www.bestqshop.com
