Microcontrollers existed before the Arduino, and a device that anyone could program and blink an LED existed before the first Maker Faire. This might come as a surprise to some, but for others PICs… ...

In this article I will add some simple Arduino LED projects starting with basic ones like how to turn on an LED, blinking, and more. Every step will have the code, the schematic, photos of the project ...

The Arduino sketch sets up the serial connection and then listens for incoming traffic. Whenever it receives a non-zero character an LED will blink.

Chapter 1, page 11 This code is basic but allows the reader to gain insight into key elements for several other projects in this book. It combines two pieces of code that are listed in the examples ...

Usually, I use the Serial Monitor of the Arduino IDE to communicate with the Arduino hardware. But now, I want to build an application on my computer that allows me to click some buttons to control ...

Of course, knowing the basics of Arduino is only half the battle; if you want to get to the fun stuff you'll have to learn how to code it as well.

COPPERAS COVE — Future robotic and electrical engineers had the opportunity to learn the basics of programming Arduino boards Saturday at the Copperas Cove Public Library, courtesy of the ...

Thankfully, Arduino forum member Romano d'Ezzelino has put together a series of reference cards that show the basics of a number of common connections.
