What is Arduino?
Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino boards are able to read inputs - light on a sensor, a finger
on a button, or a Twitter message - and turn it into an output - activating a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online. You can tell your board what
to do by sending a set of instructions to the microcontroller on the board. To do so you use the Arduino programming language (based on Wiring), and the
Arduino Software (IDE), based on Processing.
What programming language does it use?
Arduino compiler/IDE accepts C and C++ as-is. In fact, most of libraries are written in C++.
However, there isn’t really an “Arduino Language”, It's just C++ with some domain-specific libraries. These add on various features, such as functions you can call
to control the hardware. If you didn't have those functions, you'd need to fiddle directly with special registers to control everything. That's how embedded
programming is usually done. It's fast, but it can be quite hard to learn and understand.
In addition to the functions, the libraries add alternative names for some types. For example, boolean and byte are not in the C++ standard. However, they are
directly equivalent to bool and unsigned char.
All of these things mean you can probably port general C++ code directly to Arduino without difficulty. However, going back the other way may require some
minor editing.
For this manual, we will be focusing on Arduino UNO R3.

Meet Arduino Uno!
Arduino Uno is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328P. It has six analog inputs, a 16 MHz quartz crystal, a power jack, a USB
connection, an ICSP header, 14 digital input/output pins of which 6 of them can be used as PWM outputs, and a reset button.
It is an easy to use microcontroller, all you have to do is connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it up with your own power bank. You can play with
your UNO without worrying too much about destroying it, because worst case scenario will just lead you to replacing the chip and start over again.

Activity 01: Blinking and Fading LED
A light-emitting diode (LED) is a two-lead semiconductor light source. It is a p-n junction
diode that emits light when activated. When a suitable current is applied to the leads, electrons
are able to recombine with electron holes within the device, releasing energy in the form of
photons, this effect is called electroluminescence, and the color of the light is determined by the
energy band gap of the semiconductor.
The Arduino board has one built-in on digital pin 13.

and each of the four digits in the module have their own common cathode connection point. This allows
each digit to be turned on or off independently. Also, this multiplexing technique turns the massive amount
of microcontroller pins necessarily to control a display into just eleven or twelve (instead of 32).

Listed below are instructions to follow for you to check if your connections are right:
1. First of all, connect the 5V Step Motor to the Motor Driver. In order to do so, just connect the white connector of the stepper motor to the white port of
the Motor Driver. No need to understand the color-coded wiring of the schematics above between the stepper motor and the motor driver.
2. Connect one F-M Dupont Wire to the GND port of the Arduino and the (-) port of the Motor Driver located at the south of the motor driver.
3. Connect on F-M Dupont Wire to the 5V port of the Arduino and the (+) port of the Motor Driver located at the south of the motor driver.
Reference for steps 2 and 3.
4. Connect one M-F Dupont wire to the “IN1” port of the Motor Driver to pin 5 of the
Arduino.
5. Connect one M-F Dupont wire to the “IN2” port of the Motor Driver to pin 4 of the Arduino.
Once you’re done with the connections, you are now ready to create a program.
Once you’re done Verify and Upload your program to the Arduino. If you have observed that the Stepper Motor is vibrating and rotating, then your activity is
done!
Activity 16
Using SG90 Servo

A servo motor allows a precise control of the angular position, velocity and acceleration. It’s almost like you are behind
the steering wheel of your car. You can precisely control the speed and the direction you’re heading to.
The TowerPro SG90 Servo Motors are used as

actuators in many robots such as Biped Robot, hexapod etc. Commonly used for steering system in RC toys. Used in
Robots where position control is required without feedback.
Materials

Instructions
Our goal in this activity is to observe how the Servo Motor rotates in a 180-degree manner and to control it through tweaking some codes.
In order to that we must first follow the schematics below:
Take into consideration that the color of the wires used in the image above is different from the actual wires of the Servo Motor that you will be provided with.
Here are some instructions that will help you complete this activity.
1. By looking at our TowerPro SG90 Servo Motor, we will observe that there will be three wires. (one brown, one red and one orange).
2. Connect the red wire of the Servo Motor to the “5v” port of the Arduino through a Male to Male Dupont wire.
3. Connect the black wire of the Servo Motor to the “GND” port of the Arduino through a Male to Male Dupont Wire.
4. Connect the orange wire of the Servo Motor to pin “9” of the Arduino through a Male to Male Dupont wire.
Now that you are ready with the connections, let us proceed with creating a program.
But before that, we must download the Servo library. In order to do that click on Sketch > Include Library > Manage Libraries > search for Servo > hit install. After
installing, copy this sketch to your Arduino IDE.
This program lets you set to where you want the servo motor to rotate. The reason behind the (0-180) range inside the code is that, our TowerPro SG90 Servo
Motor can only capable of a 180-degree turn.
Here’s another example of code in which you will fully see the 180-degree capability of the Servo Motor. You will also observe that it can do a left and right
rotation.
And that concludes our activity.
Activity 17
Using Active Buzzers

There are basically two types of buzzers, an active and a passive. But in this activity, we will use an Active buzzer. To identify
which one is which, place the pins face up and you can see the one with a green circuit board is a passive buzzer, while the
other with a black tape, instead of a board, is an active buzzer.
An active buzzer will buzz at a predefined frequency on its own even when you just apply steady DC power. Some people prefer
active buzzers since they can use them with steady DC power but also be able to produce some variety of tones by applying an
oscillating signal.

In order to check if your connections are right, follow these steps below:
1. Place your buzzer into the breadboard.

2. Place your tactile button into the middle of the breadboard just like in the schematics, for us to be synchronized in the latter steps.
3. Using a Male to Male Dupont wire, connect “pin8” of the Arduino and the positive (+) terminal of the buzzer. The longer leg of the buzzer is considered
to be the positive terminal of the buzzer while the shorter leg is the negative terminal of the buzzer.
4. Using a Male to Male Dupont wire, connect “GND” port of the Arduino and the negative terminal of the buzzer.
5. Connect the 10k resistor to the lower right leg of the tactile button.
6. Using a Male to Male Dupont wire, connect “GND” port of the Arduino and the other leg of the resistor.
7. Using a Male to Male Dupont wire, connect “5v” port of the Arduino and the lower left leg of the tactile button.
8. Using a Male to Male Dupont wire, connect “pin12” of the Arduino and the upper right leg of the tactile button.
Now that your connections are right, let us proceed in creating a program.
After copying the codes above, create a new tab. To create a new tab, click on this button located on the upper right of your Arduino IDE and right
below the Serial Monitor button.
Name the new tab as “pitches.h”. Next, copy these statements on your “pitches.h” tab. You may also access this site

Activity 22 (PROCEED WITH EXTRA CAUTION: HIGH VOLTAGE)
Using 5v Relay
A relay is an electrically operated switch. Current flowing through the coil of the relay creates a magnetic field which attracts a
lever and changes the switch contacts. The coil current can be on or off so relays have two switch positions and they are
double throw (changeover) switches. A 5v relay means that you need 5v. to activate the relay, In other words, it means that
the voltage across the relay coil has to be 5v.

you need to do is to cut one of those wires in order for us to have a disconnected wire.
6. Strip the two ends of the wire that you just cut and attach them to the relay. To attach them to the relay, screw one end of the wire in the middle screw
of the wire and screw the other end of the wire in the left screw of the relay.
Now that your connections are right. Open you Arduino IDE and copy this sketch.
Once you’re done, verify and upload your program to your Arduino Uno Board.
Lastly, plug it to an outlet and check if the bulb turns on for 3 seconds and turns off for 5 seconds. If the bulb does turns ON for 3 seconds and OFF for 5 seconds,
then you have succeeded in our Activity 22.

click install.
Now that you are done copying the program, verify and upload it to your Arduino Uno Board. To fully enjoy this activity, we first need to identify the “tap card
key” of your available card or keychain. In order to do this, open the Serial Monitor of your Arduino IDE (located at the upper right corner, looks like a magnifying
glass) and tap your own card.
Once you have tapped your card, you must be seeing an output like this but with a different “Tap card key”:
Don’t worry if it says “Access Denied” for now, because as of the moment, my own tap cad key is copied in your code. Now to correct this, copy the number and
letter combination after the label “Tap card key” and replace the number and letter combination of your code in this part:
after the label “Tap card key” and replace the number and letter combination of your code in this part:
Replace that “D1:7E:2B:2D” with your own tap card key but don’t forget the quotation marks. Now that you have replaced my code, you should now be able to
see an output like this:
Of course, you will still be having a different card key. But now you should be able to read that “Authorized Access” and a blue LED should be notifying you that
you have tapped the right card. Now try, tapping a wrong card, to see if the red LED will notify you that you have tapped the wrong card.
