Curriculum Outline
Provides an overview of microcontrollers role in today's world and how they are becoming embedded in a vast array of physical systems. Students will become familiar with the Uno's layout and function.
|
Users are given a summary of the basics of circuitry. The objective is for users to construct multiple LED circuits with and without a switch.
|
Users have an overview of the Arduino Integrated Development Environment and the basics of C based coding. The objective is to successfully create and load a program to control various LED blink rates and patterns.
|
Pulse shows the difference between analog and digital signals. Activities revolve around controlling the pulse width modulation the Uno uses to emulate a digital signal to control light brightness and applications in motor control.
|
This lesson uses pulse width modulation to control the ratio of colors on an RGB (Red, Green, Blue) LED. Color mixing is used to control light sequences. Students will learn how by combining red, green, and blue to create over 17 million colors.
