Arduino Tutorial Test 1

 

The easiest way for beginners to get started with Arduino is by creating circuits using a solderless breadboard.

These simple projects will teach you the basics of Arduino Uno, electronics and programming.

The first project is one of the most basic and simple circuits you can create with Arduino.

This project will test your Arduino by blinking an LED that is connected directly to the board.

Parts Needed:
(1) Arduino Uno
(1) USB A-to-B Cable
(1) LED 5mm
(1) 220 Ω Resistor

 

Before you can start working with Arduino, you need to make sure you have the Arduino IDE software installed on your computer.

This program allows you to write, view and upload the code to your Arduino Uno board.

You can download the IDE for free on Arduino’s website.
Once the IDE is installed, you will need to connect your Arduino to your computer.

To do this, plug one end of the USB cable to the Arduino Uno and then the other end of the USB to your computer’s USB port.

Select The Board
Once the board is plugged in, you will need to open the IDE and click on Tools > Board > Arduino Uno to select the board.

 

 

Select Serial Port

Next, you have to tell the Arduino which port you are using on your computer.

To select the port, go to Tools > Port and then select the port that says Arduino.

Project Steps
1. Twist a 220 Ω resistor to the long leg (+) of the LED.
2. Push the short leg of the LED into the ground (GND) pin on the board.
3. Push the resistor leg that’s connected to the LED into the #13 pin.

Project Code
1. Connect the Arduino board to your computer using the USB cable.

2. Open project code – Circuit_01_TestArduino

Use the link below to download the zip folder containing the code.
Download Project Code
Once the file has been downloaded, you will need to unzip/extract the folder in order to use it.

                                                                             
3. Select the board and serial port as outlined in earlier section.

4. Click upload button to send sketch to the Arduino.
