Fundamental of Electronics

• Resistor x 1
• LED x 1
• Breadboard x 1
• Wires

Arduino Programming Language

• setup() : structure/sketch
• loop(): structure/sketch
• pinMode(): Functions/Digital I/O
• digitalWrite(): Functions/Digital I/O
• delay(): Functions/Time

Task 1: use example code ‘Blink’ to test the Arduino board, and data connection between Arduino board to computer.

The program can be found in Arduino IDE File/Examples/Basics/Blink

Objectives of practice:

• Students start to familiar with the process of using Arduino board
• Understanding the correct configuration of Arduino IDE

---

Task 2: use basic electronic components: resistor and led to construct a ‘Blink’ circuit’. And develop a program to control the circuit

Objectives of practice:

• Students start to familiar with the Fritzing software
• Engage with basic programming practice
• Understanding how to used basic electronic components
