This guide will get you through learning the Arduino platform, regardless if you've had previous exposure to microcontrollers or not. | This guide will get you through learning the Arduino platform, regardless if you've had previous exposure to microcontrollers or not. | ||
- | ====== Prerequisites ====== | ||
- | If you've had previous exposure to microcontrollers you'll definitely feel at home. In fact, you might find it way easier that what you've had to do before. | + | ====== Tasks ====== |
- | Otherwise, if you haven't, don't worry. You can get a great start with the Arduino platform and use it to start building your foundational knowledge about microcontrollers. | + | - Go through the [[ https://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/HomePage ]] guide to make sure you're all set up. |
+ | - Complete some arduino built in examples | ||
+ | - Bare Minimum | ||
+ | - Blink | ||
+ | - Blink Without Delay | ||
- | Make sure you've read through the following pages: | ||
- | [[ embedded systems ]] \\ | ||
- | [[ Arduino Introduction ]] | ||
- | ====== A Word of Caution ====== | + | ====== Help ====== |
- | The Arduino does tend to abstract many things - it's important to understand that the inner workings of the Arduino are not that magical. There is a deep pool of EE-related knowledge underneath that abstraction that you can understand if you take the time to carefully consider what is happening. | + | Things might still be confusing at this point - [[ https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/Foundations | this page ]] might help clear up some things. It might be your benefit to skim through some of those materials. |
- | Refer back to the embedded systems concepts you covered earlier when you get confused conceptually. | + | Also, if in doubt - as for clarification or help! Other teams may be available, your mentors are there to help you and the leadership team is always there. |
- | ====== Tasks ====== | + | ====== Assignments ====== |
- | - Go through the [[ Arduino Setup ]] guide to make sure you're all set up. | + | - Were you able to program the Arduino? |
- | - [[ Bare Minimum ]] | + | - Did you have any problems during the Arduino process? |
- | - [[ Blink ]] | + | - What you think is the next step after this? |
- | - [[ Blink without delay ]] | + | |
