ARDUINO
Arduino interface boards provide the engineers,artists,designers,hobbyists and anyone who
tinker with technology with a low-cost,easy-to-use technology to create their creative,interactive
objects,useful projects etc.,A whole new breed of projects can now be built that can be controlled
from a computer.
1.1 WHAT IS ARDUINO?
Figure 1.1 ARDUINO UNO
Arduino is a open source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible,easy-to-use
hardware and software.It’s intended for artists,designers,hobbyists,and anyone interested in
creating interactive objects or environments.It’s an open-source physical computing platform
based on a microcontroller board,and a development environment for writing software for the
board.
In simple words,Arduino is a small microcontroller board with a USB plug to connect to your
computer and a number of connection sockets that can be wired up to external electronics,such as
motors,relays,light sensors,laser diodes,loudspeakers,microphones,etc.,They can either be
powered through the USB connection from the computer or from a 9V battery.They can be
controlled from the computer or programmed by the computer and then disconnected and allowed
to work independently.

Anyone can buy this device through online auction site or search engine.Since the Arduino
is an open-source hardware designs and ccreate their own clones of the Arduino and sell them,so
the market for the boards is competitive.An official Arduino costs about $30,and a clone often
less than $20.
The name “Arduino” is reserved by the original makers. However, clone Arduino designs often
have the letters “duino” on the end of their name, for example, Freeduino or DFRduino. The
software for programming your Arduino is easy to use and also freely available for Windows,
Mac, and LINUX computers at no cost.
1.1.1 Microcontroller
Microcontroller can be described as a computer embedded on a rather small circuit
board.To describe the function of a microcontroller more precisely,it is a single chip that can
perform various calculations and tasks,and send/receive signals from other devices via the
available pins. Precisely what tasks and
communication with the world it does, is what is governed by what instructions we give to
the Microcontroller. It is this job of telling the chip what to do, is what we refer to as
programming on it.
However, the uC by itself, cannot accomplish much; it needs several external inputs:
power, for one; a steady clock signal, for another. Also, the job of programming it has to be
accomplished by an external circuit. So typically, a uC is used along with a circuit which
provides these things to it; this combination is called a microcontroller board. The Arduino Uno
that you have recieved, is one such microcontroller board. The actual microcontroller at its heart
is the chip called Atmega328. The advantages that Arduino offers over other microcontroller
boards are largely in terms of reliability of the circuit hardware as well as the ease of
programming and using it.

1.1.2 Open-source hardware
Open-source hardware shares much of the principles and approach of free and open-
source software.The founders of Arduino wanted people to study their hardware,to understand
how it works,make changes to it,and share those changes with the world.To facilitate this,they
release all of the original design files(Eagle CAD)for the Arduino hardware.These files are
licensed under a Creative Common Attribution Share-Alike license,which allows for both
personal and commercial derivative works,as long as they(people) credit Arduino and release
their designs under the same license.
The Arduino software is also oen-source.The source code for the Java environment is
released under the GPL and the C/C++ microcontroller libraries are under the LGPL
1.2 HISTORY OF ARDUINO
While teaching a physical computing class at the Interaction Design Institute Ivrea in 2005,
Massimo Banzi’s students were unwilling to spend the 76 euros for the BASIC Stamp
microcontrollers commonly used in such applications. Banzi and his collegues looked for
alternatives, finally settling on the wiring platform developed by one of Banzi’s students. In his
own words:
“…we started to figure out how could we make the whole platform even simpler, even cheaper,
even easier to
use. And then we started to essentially reimplement the whole thing as an open source project.”
Once they had a prototype, a student wrote the software that would allow wiring programs to run
on the new platform. Upon seeing the project, visiting professor Casey Reas suggested that there
might be wider applications than just design schools for the new product. The prototype was
redesigned for mass production and a test run of 200 boards was made. Orders began coming in
from other design schools and the students looking for Arduinos, and the Arduino project was
born and Massimo Banzi and David Cuartielles became its founders.”ARDUINO” is an Italian
word,meaning “STRONG FRIEND”.The English version of the name is “Hardwin”. As of May
2011,more than 300,000 Arduino units are “in the wild”.
1.2.1 DesignGoals
 Work with a Mac (as most design students use one)
 USB connectivity (MacBooks don’t have serial ports

 Look nice
 Cheap (about 20 euros, the cost of going out for pizza in Europe)
 More powerful than a BASIC stamp
 Something you could build/fix yourself
Simple and easy to use by someone without formal electronics training
1.2.2 Business Models
Since the entire project is open source, anyone can build and sell Arduino-compatible
devices. So in this sense, the Arduino project relies heavily on its branding for it’s financial
success . Other projects manufacture compatible and cheaper boards, however people are loyal to
the Arduino branded boards because they associate quality and a certain image to the
final product .
1.2.2.1 By the Numbers
Year Units Sold
2005 200
2006 10 000
2010 120 000
2011 300 000
1.2.3 Competitors
Before Arduino, the largest players in the design/hobbyist market segment were the PIC
microcontroller family (made by Microchip) and the BASIC Stamp (made by Parallax). Since
the introduction of the Arduino, other large companies have tried to enter the hobbyist market,
including Texas Instruments , and even Microsoft . However, the open-sourced tools
of the Arduino and the size of its community are large barriers for new platforms to overcome.
Figure 2 GOOGLE trends comparing ARDUINO with its biggest competitors

1.2.4 Community
As the project is aimed at students and hobbyists who may not have any formal electronics
background, there are many excellent guides online covering everything from making a light
blink to creating a laser harp. The official forum has almost 60 000 registered users, and along
with helping users with their projects, is extremely active in developing new libraries to extend
the functionality of the Arduino . The open-source share and share alike sentiment is very strong,
and the vast majority of users freely publish the code to their projects.
1.3 PHYSICAL COMPUTING
Physical Computing is an approach to learn how humans communicate through computers
that starts by considering how humans express themselves physically.

2.1.3 EXTERNAL power
Figure 7 ARDUINO can run off with USB or EXTERNAL power source
The power requirement for ARDUINO is 9 to 12V
DC,250mA or more,2.1mm plug,centre pin positive.
The OFF-the shelf adapter
 must be a DC adapter (i.e. it has to put out DC, not AC)
 should be between 9V and 12V DC
 must be rated for a minimum of 250mA current output, although you will likely want
something more like 500mA or 1A output, as it gives you the current necessary to power
a servo or twenty LEDs if you want to.
 must have a 2.1mm power plug on the Arduino end, and
 the plug must be "centre positive", that is, the middle pin of the plug has to be the +
connection.
Figure 6 AC adapter can be used
Figure 8 An easier way to connect a battery

Current rating: Since you'll probably be connecting other things to the Arduino (LEDs, LCDs,
servos) you should get an adapter that can supply at least 500mA, or even 1000 mA (1 ampère).
That way you can be sure you have enough juice to make each component of the circuit function
reliably.
The Arduino's on-board regulator can actually handle up to 20V or more, so you can actually use
an adapter that puts out 20V DC. The reasons you don't want to do that are twofold: you'll lose
most of that voltage in heat, which is terribly inefficient. Secondly, the nice 9V pin on the
Arduino board will actually be putting out 20V or so, which could lead to potential disaster when
you connect something expensive to what you thought was the 9V pin. Our advice is to stick
with the 9V or 12V DC adapter.
2.1.4 ARDUINO flavors!!
There have been many revisions of the USB Arduino.some of them are
1. Arduino UNO:
This is the latest revision of the basic Arduino USB
board. It connects to the computer with a standard
USB cable and contains everything else you need to
program and use the board. It can be extended with a
variety of shields: custom daughter-boards with
specific features. It is similar to the Duemilanove, but
has a different USB-to-serial chip the ATMega8U2,
and newly designed labeling to make inputs and
outputs easier to identify.
2. Arduino Mega 2560:
A larger, more powerful Arduino board. Has
extra digital pins, PWM pins, analog inputs,
serial ports, etc. The version of the Mega
released with the Uno, this version features
the Atmega2560, which has twice the
memory, and uses the ATMega 8U2 for
USB-to-serial communication.

3. Arduino Duemilanove:
The Duemilanove automatically selects the
appropriate power supply (USB or external
power), eliminating the need for the power
selection jumper found on previous boards.
It also adds an easiest to cut trace for
disabling the auto-reset, along with a solder
jumper for re-enabling it.
Note: around March 1st, 2009, the
Duemilanove started to ship with the ATmega328p instead of theATmega168.
4. Arduino Fio:
An Arduino intended for use as a wireless node.
Has a header for an XBee radio, a connector for
a LiPobattery, and a battery chargingcircuit.
5. LilyPad Arduino:
A stripped-down, circular Arduino board
designed for stitching into clothing and other
fabric/flexible applications. Needs an additional
adapter to communicate with a computer.

6. Arduino Diecimila:
The main change in the Arduino Diecimila is
that it can be reset from the computer, without
the need to physically press the reset button on
the board. The Diecimila uses a low dropout
voltage regulator which lowers the board's
power consumption when powered by an
external supply (AC/DC adapter or battery). A
resettable polyfuse protects your computer's
USB ports from shorts and surges. It also provides pin headers for the reset line and for 3.3V.
There is a built-in LED on pin 13. Some blue Diecimila boards say "Prototype - Limited
Edition" but are in fact fully-tested production boards (the actual prototypes are red).
7. Lilypad Arduino 03
This revision has a 6-pin programming header
that's compatible with FTDI USB cables and
the Sparkfun FTDI Basic Breakout. It adds
support for automatic reset, allowing sketches
to be uploaded without pressing the reset button
on the board. The header is surface mounted,
meaning that the board has no pokey bits
sticking out the back.

8. Arduino NG Rev.C
Revision C of the Arduino NG does not have a built-
in LED on pin 13 - instead you'll see two small
unused solder pads near the labels "GND" and "13".
There is, however, about 1000 ohms of resistance on
pin 13, so you can connect an LED without external
resistor.
9. Arduino Extreme
The Arduino Extreme uses many more surface mount
components than previous USB Arduino boards and
comes with female pin headers. It also has RX and
TX LEDs that indicate when data is being sent to or
from the board.
10. Arduino Mini 04
On this version of the Arduino Mini, two of the
pins changed. The third pin became reset (instead
of ground) and fourth pin became ground (instead
of being unconnected). These boards are labelled
"Mini 04".

Still there are ,Arduino Serial,Arduino Serial v2.0,Arduino Nano 3.0,Arduino Nano
2.x,Serverino(S3V3),Arduino Stamp 02,Mini USB adapter 03,Mini USB Adapter,Arduino
Bluetooth.
2.1.5 Basic Terminologies in ARDUINO:

2.3 LANGUAGE REFERENCES:
The Microcontroller on the board is programmed using the Arduino programming
language(based on wiring) and the arduino development environment(based on processing).
2.3.1 Arduino Programming Language(APL)(based on wiring)
The Arduino programming language is an implementation of Wiring, a similar physical
computing platform, which is based on the Processing multimedia programming environment.
2.3.1.1 Wiring
Wiring is an open-source programming framework for microcontrollers. Wiring allows
writing cross-platform software to control devices attached to a wide range of microcontroller
boards to create all kinds of creative coding, interactive objects, spaces or physical experiences.
The framework is thoughtfully created with designers and artists in mind to encourage a
community where beginners through experts from around the world share ideas, knowledge and
their collective experience. There are thousands of students, artists, designers, researchers, and
hobbyists who use Wiring for learning, prototyping, and finished professional work production.
2.3.2 Arduino development environment(based on processing)
2.3.2.1 Processing
Processing is an open source programming language and environment for people who
want to create images, animations, and interactions. Initially developed to serve as a software
sketchbook and to teach fundamentals of computer programming within a visual context,
Processing also has evolved into a tool for generating finished professional work. Today, there
are tens of thousands of students, artists, designers, researchers, and hobbyists who use
Processing for learning, prototyping, and production.
2.3.3 Software
The software used by the arduino is Arduino IDE.
he Arduino IDE is a cross-platform application written in Java, and is derived from the IDE for
the Processing programming language and the Wiringproject. It is designed to introduce
programming to artists and other newcomers unfamiliar with software development. It includes a
code editor with features such as syntax highlighting, brace matching, and automatic indentation,
and is also capable of compiling and uploading programs to the board with a single click. There

is typically no need to edit makefiles or run programs on acommand-line interface. Although
building on command-line is possible if required with some third-party tools such as Ino.
The Arduino IDE comes with a C/C++ library called "Wiring" (from the project of the same
name), which makes many common input/output operations much easier. Arduino programs are
written in C/C++, although users only need define two functions to make a runnable program:
 setup() – a function run once at the start of a program that can initialize settings
 loop() – a function called repeatedly until the board powers off
Figure 10 A screenshot of the Arduino IDE showing the "Blink"program,a simple biginner program

A typical first program for a microcontroller simply blinks a LED on and off. In the Arduino
environment, the user might write a program like this:
#define LED_PIN 13
void setup () {
pinMode (LED_PIN, OUTPUT); // enable pin 13 for digital output
}
void loop () {
digitalWrite (LED_PIN, HIGH); // turn on the LED
delay (1000); // wait one second (1000
milliseconds)
digitalWrite (LED_PIN, LOW); // turn off the LED
delay (1000); // wait one second
}
For the above code to work correctly, the positive side of the LED must be connected to pin 13
and the negative side of the LED must be connected to ground. The above code would not be
seen by a standard C++ compiler as a valid program, so when the user clicks the "Upload to I/O
board" button in the IDE, a copy of the code is written to a temporary file with an extra include
header at the top and a very simple main() function at the bottom, to make it a valid C++
program.
The Arduino IDE uses the GNU toolchain and AVR Libc to compile programs, and
uses avrdude to upload programs to the board.
For educational purposes there is third party graphical development environment called Minibloq
available under a different open source license.
2.3.3.1 language reference
Arduino programs can be divided in three main parts: structure, values (variables and
constants), and functions.
Available datatypes in ARDUINO IDE are
•void
•boolean
•char ( 0 – 255)

•byte - 8 bit data ( 0 – 255)
•int - 16-bit data (32,767 - -32,768)
•long – 32 bit data (2,147,483,647 to -2,147,483,648)
•float
•double
•string - char array
•String - object
•array
Arithmetic operators
Arithmetic operators include addition,subtraction,multiplication and division.For math that
requires fractions,you can use float variables,if you can bear large size and slow computation
speeds in your microcontroller.
e.g. ,
y = y + 3;
x = x – 7;
i = j * 6;
r = r / 5;
Comparision operators
Comparisons of one variable or constant against another are often used in if statements to test if
a specified condition is true.
e.g. ,
x == y // x is equal to y
x != y // x is not equal to y
x < y // x is less than y
x > y // x is greater than y
x <= y // x is less than or equal to y
x >= y // x is greater than or equal to y

Logical operators
Logical operators are usually a way to logically combine two expressions and return a TRUE or
FALSE depending on the operator.
There are three logical operators, AND, OR, and NOT.
e.g. ,
Logical AND:
if (x > 0 && x < 5) // true only if both expressions are true
Logical OR:
if (x > 0 || y > 0) // true if either expression is true
Logical NOT:
if (!x > 0) // true only if expression
TRUE/FALSE
These are Boolean constants that define logic levels of the arduino.
FALSE is easily defined as 0 (zero)
TRUE is often defined as 1, but can also be anything else except zero. So in a Boolean sense, -1,
2, and -200 are all also defined as TRUE.
e.g. ,
if (abcd== TRUE);
{
DoSomethingNice;
}
else
{
DoSomethingHorrible;
}
HIGH/LOW
These constants define pin levels as HIGH or LOW and are used when reading or writing to
digital pins.
HIGH is defined as logic level 1, ON, or 5 volts

LOW is logic level 0, OFF, or 0 volts.
e.g. ,
digitalWrite(13, HIGH);
INPUT/OUTPUT
These constants define pin levels as HIGH or LOW and are used when reading or writing to
digital pins.
HIGH is defined as logic level 1, ON, or 5 volts
LOW is logic level 0, OFF, or 0 volts.
e.g. ,
pinmode(13, OUTPUT);
2.3.3.2 Arduino/processing language Comparision
The Arduino language (based on Wiring) is implemented in C/C++, and therefore has some
differences from the Processing language, which is based on Java.
Figure 11 Comparision between Arduino and Processing language

2.3.4 SIMULATOR for ARDUINO:
The Arduino Simulator app gives the user the freedom to work without the basic setup
of hardware and software. It is designed to be used by beginners and also, experienced
developers, who want to quickly develop Arduino projects.
The developer can make the necessary changes in the code - delay, pin number, and state -
0 (low) 1 (high) - and check it immediately. The app shows the breadboard, complete with
14 LED pins.
You can drag and place the wires in the correct positions to connect to Arduino. If the wires
are placed according to the code, then it will show the expected results. Once satisfied, you
can save it and email it. The code can be copied and used in an actual project just as easily.
This app is an easy way to work through Arduino projects. With customisable codes, and a
simple to use interface, this Arduino Simulator app from Schogini Systems is a convenient
app for Arduino developers.
A screenshot of Arduino simulator is shown in the figure below

Chapter 3
APPLICATIONS OF ARDUINO
Arduino was basically designes to make the process of using electronics in
multidisciplinary projects more accessible.It is intended for artists,designers,hobbyists,and
anyone interested in creating interactive objects or environments.Arduino can sense the
environment by receiving input from a variety of sensors and can affect its surroundings by
controlling lights,motors,and other actuators.because of these features,arduino finds extensive
application in various fields.Arduino projects can be stand-alone or they can communicate with
software running on a computer.
Arduino received an Honarary Mention in Digital Communication section of the 2006 Ars
Electronica Prix
Arduino is used by all class of people in a different way.some students use it in their
projects,some using arduino for fun,some went out to become entreupreuners.This only shows
how useful is this tiny device.
Figure 13 ARDUINO FEVER
ARDUINO is spreading rapidly across the globe. Arduino is actually an open source hardware
project that can be pro grammed to read temperatures, control a motor, and sense touch.
the Arduino is both a cute, blue micro controller platform that fits nicely in the palm of your
hand and an expanding community of developers who support it, distributed across two dozen
coun tries, four continents, and counting.

The Arduino board is for anyone who wants to build a basic level of intelligence into an object.
Once programmed, it can read sensors, make simple deci sions, and control myriad devices in the
real world. Using it is a snap: first, hook up a few sensors and output devices to the Arduino,
then program it using the free developer’s software. Next, debug your code and disconnect the
Arduino.Then,the little blue Arduino becomes a standalone computer.
The original intention of the Arduino project was to see what would happen if community
support were substituted for the corporate support that is usually required for electronics
development. The first developers — Massimo Banzi, David Cuartielles, David Mellis, and
Nicholas Zambetti — ran a series of workshops on assembling the Arduino, giving away the
board to stimulate development.
Thousands of projects have been done worldwide using this tiny little device.some of which to
mention are:
 Simple room temperature readout
 Interactive real-time auditory feedback system
 GPS receiver Module
 Ultrasonic Sensor
 Infrared detectors
 SONAR
 Various sensor projects like
 Keypad security code
 Sensor tube for heart monitor
 Pulse rate monitor
 Various light projects like
 Multicolor light display
 Seven-segment LED display
 Double seven-segment LED dice
 LED array
 LCD module

 Various sound projects like
 Oscilloscope
 Light harp
 VU meter
 Various power projects like
 LCD Thermostat
 Computer controlled fan
 The hypnotizer
 Miscellaneous Projects like
 Lie detector
 Magnetic door lock
 Infrared remote
 Lilypad binary clock
Just to name a few….as the trademark goes,there are nearly infinite possible projects
using this tiny device,which we still yet to discover
Some of the major applications are 3D printers,whos founder went out to become an
euntreuprenuer,and major pride came to ARDUINO,when giant firm GOOGLE’s
most ambitious ANDROID,deployed ARDUINO in its new venture “ANDROID
OPEN ACCESSORY DEVELOPMENT KIT”.which allows external USB hardware
to interact with an Android-powered device in a special accessory mode.ANDROID
executive announced this in annual GOOGLE IO meet conference 2011.ANDROID
calls that device made of arduino as ADK(Android development kit).
Arduino also has won annual “2012 INTERACTION AWARD” sponsored by
GOOGLE,for its extensive applications in various fields.

3.1 Why Arduino is popular?
Here are five reasons why the Arduino is more popular than beagleboard:
 Starter Projects: Editing and rewriting is often easier than writing from scratch. It’s the
same with electronics. It’s easier to mod an idea than start with a blank slate.That’s where
the BeagleBoard falls short. “It has virtually no example application that you can just
copy and hack to learn from,” says Massimo Banzi, one of the co-founders of the
Arduino project. It’s a chicken-and-egg problem for the BeagleBoard. Unless there are
more example codes out there, it is difficult to draw in the audience. And without the
audience it is challenging to get enough sample projects into the community.
 Cost and Durability: At $30 a piece, an Arduino is an inexpensive investment for
someone who wants to try it out. “It’s the price of a few sandwiches,” says Torrone.
Compare that to the BeagleBoard-xM, which costs $180. One reason why the Arduino is
so cheap is because it is easy to clone. The microcontroller is completely open source so
the “components are all commodity,” says Torrone. With the BeagleBoard, hobbyists
don’t have the same amount of freedom. They have to work closely with Texas
Instruments or its partners, says Torrone. Arduino is also very resilient. Drop it, smash it
and it still stays alive. Add to that its low-power requirement, and the product becomes a
must-have for DIYers. An Arduino can run on a 9V-battery for days. “The BeagleBoard
Figure 14 ADK android version of Arduino

is fast and powerful but that also means lots of energy is needed, which makes it difficult
for simple projects,” says Torrone.
 A Thriving Community: Arduino’s popularity means it’s easy to get started. Companies
such as Adafruit, SparkFun and Liquidware not only sell chips, but they also host blogs
that suggest ideas on how to use your Arduino while providing extensive project plans to
guide you in completing your creations. Will Chellman, a student who has played with
Arduino for years, says he’s now experimenting with the BeagleBoard. But finding
documentation and information to work off is not easy, he says. The lack of well-
documented projects done with the BeagleBoard can be intimidating to new users as well,
says Banzi. “There’s lots of of interesting stuff (about the BeagleBoard) but it is very
technical,” he wrote in a comment recently on Gadget Lab in response to the launch of
BeagleBoard-xM. Banzi says BeagleBoard documentation is also scattered and
fragmented. “Parts of it have aged and you spend quite a bit of time jumping from wikis
to mailing list to track which specific bit of documentation applies to your board,
bootloader etc.,” he says.
 Maturity is the key: Arduino has had a head start on the BeagleBoard. By October 2008,
about 50,000 Arduino boards had already been shipped. That year, the first BeagleBoards
started making their way into the hands of hardware enthusiasts. The BeagleBoard is just
two years old. Since it hasn’t been around long enough, there’s not enough people
building apps based on it,” says Chellman. That’s not to say that BeagleBoard isn’t
catching up. Earlier this month, we showed five projects ranging from a videowall to the
iPad of ham radios that use the BeagleBoard. There’s also a build-your-own tablet kit that
is based off the BeagleBoard.
 Simple is attractive: With its single-board computer configuration, 1-GHz processing
power and the choice of accessories, the BeagleBoard is a creative engineer’s dream
come true. But the same reasons make it intimidating to those who want to geek out on a
DIY project but don’t have the technical know-how. Arduino users point out that it is
simple to connect external sensors to the board, and the example codes out there make it
easy to get started quickly. Arduino is a simple system designed for creative people with

little or “no prior knowledge of electronics,” says Banzi. “It’s cheap and open source with
lots of documentation written in a not too technical language. Above all, it has a very
welcoming attitude towards beginners and tries not to scare them too much.”
3.2 Conclusion and future scope
Over the years,Arduino has went out to become a huge success and a common name
among students.With google deploying it,people’s imagination has went out to much higher
level than before.A developer in the annual GOOGLE IO conference said “when Arduino
and Android coming together,this really proves “INFINITY EXISTS” in the future”.I think a
study on arduino and practical experiments on arduino must be added for UG courses of
engineering,to help students to leverage their talents,and imagination.
