What is Arduino UNO &

Microcontroller
Arduino :
It's a development board that combines a
microcontroller (like the Atmega328) with
additional components, making it easier for
beginners to get started with programming
and electronics.
Microcontroller :
It's a standalone chip that needs external
components like memory and input/output
pins to function.

Arduino Uno vs
Other Arduino Boards
While Arduino Uno is a popular choice, it's not the only
Arduino board available. Here's a brief comparison:
Arduino Mega: Larger board with more I/O pins,
ideal for more complex projects.
Arduino Nano: Smaller and more compact board,
suitable for portable devices.
Arduino Micro: Similar to Nano but with a different
form factor.
Arduino Leonardo: Features built-in USB
communication, useful for projects that need to act
as a USB device.
Getting Started with
Arduino Uno
Download the Arduino IDE: This software is used to
write and upload code to your Arduino board.
Connect your Arduino Uno: Plug it into your
computer using the USB cable.
Open the Arduino IDE: Create a new sketch and
start writing your code.
Compile and Upload: Click the "Upload" button to
send your code to the Arduino.
Experiment: Start with simple examples like blinking
an LED or reading sensor data.
