The Arduino Platform: Resorce Person

The document discusses the Arduino platform. It describes the main components of the Arduino environment including the development board, Arduino IDE, and shields. The development board uses an 8-bit microcontroller and USB interface. The Arduino IDE is a cross-compiler, debugger and programmer. Shields add unique functionalities. The document also provides examples of blinking an LED and interfacing an LCD with coding examples and schematics.

Microcontrollers
 ATmega328 is microcontroller
programmed by the user
Application code
 User code

 ATmega16U2 handles USB


communication
 Firmware
 USB interface, power mode,
reset etc.

Arduino Sketch
 A program is called a Sketch
 C++ program using Arduino library fuctions
 C++ is a superset of C
 All C programs are legal C++

 C++ also include classes


 Group together data and functions that are
related

14
Sketch Structure
Setup() function
 A sketch does not have a main() function
 Every Sketch has a setup() function
Executed once when Arduino is powered up
 Used for initialization operations
 Returns no value, take no arguments

void setup()
{
……
} 15
Loop() function
 Every Sketch has a loop() function
 Executed iteratively as long as the Arduino is powered up
 loop() starts executing after setup() has finished
 loop() is the main program control flow
 Returns no value, take no arguments

void loop()
{
……
}
