Coding with an Arduino Uno involves writing programs (called "sketches") in the Arduino

IDE and uploading them to the Arduino board to control sensors, actuators, or other
connected components. Here's how you can get started:

1. Set Up Your Environment

Install the Arduino IDE

1. Download the Arduino IDE from the o icial Arduino website.

2. Install the software on your computer.

Connect the Arduino Uno

1. Use a USB cable to connect your Arduino Uno to your computer.

2. The power LED on the board should light up.

Configure the IDE

1. Open the Arduino IDE.

2. Go to Tools > Board > Arduino Uno to select your board.

3. Go to Tools > Port and select the port corresponding to your Arduino (e.g., COM3
on Windows or /dev/ttyUSB0 on Linux/Mac).

2. Write Your First Sketch

A sketch is a simple program written in the Arduino programming language, which is


based on C/C++. Here's an example:

Blink an LED

1. Open the Arduino IDE and write the following code:

// The setup function runs once when the board is powered on or reset

void setup() {

pinMode(13, OUTPUT); // Set pin 13 as an output

// The loop function runs repeatedly

void loop() {
digitalWrite(13, HIGH); // Turn the LED on

delay(1000); // Wait for 1 second

digitalWrite(13, LOW); // Turn the LED o

delay(1000); // Wait for 1 second

2. Click the Verify button (checkmark icon) to compile your code.

3. Click the Upload button (arrow icon) to upload the code to your Arduino.

3. Understand the Basics of Arduino Code

Structure

 setup(): Initializes settings (e.g., pin modes, serial communication). Runs once
at the start.

 loop(): Contains the main code that repeats continuously.

Basic Functions

 pinMode(pin, mode): Sets a pin as input or output.

 digitalWrite(pin, value): Sets a digital pin to HIGH or LOW.

 digitalRead(pin): Reads the value from a digital pin (HIGH or LOW).

 analogWrite(pin, value): Writes an analog value (PWM) to a pin.

 analogRead(pin): Reads the value (0–1023) from an analog pin.

 delay(ms): Pauses the program for a specified time in milliseconds.

4. Explore Projects

Start experimenting with basic projects to learn more about coding and electronics.

Examples

1. Blink External LED

o Connect an LED to a digital pin using a resistor.

o Modify the Blink example to use the connected pin.

2. Control a Servo Motor


o Use the Servo library to control a servo.

o Code example:

o #include <Servo.h>

o Servo myServo;

o void setup() {

o myServo.attach(9); // Attach the servo to pin 9

o }

o void loop() {

o myServo.write(0); // Move to 0 degrees

o delay(1000);

o myServo.write(180); // Move to 180 degrees

o delay(1000);

o }

3. Read a Temperature Sensor

o Connect a temperature sensor like the LM35.

o Read the analog signal and calculate the temperature.

5. Debugging

 Use Serial Monitor:

o Add Serial.begin(9600); in setup().

o Use Serial.print() or Serial.println() to print messages or data.

 Open the Serial Monitor from Tools > Serial Monitor to see output.

6. Resources to Learn More

 Arduino's o icial website: Tutorials and documentation.


 Online platforms like Instructables and Hackster.io for project ideas.

 YouTube channels for hands-on tutorials.
