3. What is a Microcontroller? A small computer usually implemented on a single IC that contains a central processing unit (CPU), some memory, and peripheral devices such as counter/timers, analog-to- digital converters, serial communication hardware, etc. http://www.amazon.com/AVR-Pin-20MHz- 32K-ATMega328/dp/B004G5AVS6 ATmega328 the ‘brain’ of the Arduino

7. Handling the Arduino - The Proper Way Proper Handling - by the edges!!!

8. Fundamental Flow of an Arduino Program Start Setup Loop End

9. Programming the Arduino An arduino program == ‘sketch’  Must have: setup() loop()  setup() configures pin modes and registers  loop() runs the main body of the program forever  like while(1) {…}  Where is main() ? Arduino simplifies things Does things for you /* Blue_LED_button_cntrl1 - turns on blue LED when SW0 on Experimenter board is pressed, off otherwise */ /* pin assignments */ const byte RGB_blue_pin = 6; const byte SW0_pin = 12; /* configure pins */ void setup() { pinMode(RGB_blue_pin, OUTPUT); pinMode(SW0_pin, INPUT_PULLUP); } /* loop forever */ void loop() { if(digitalRead(SW0_pin) == LOW) digitalWrite(RGB_blue_pin, HIGH); else digitalWrite(RGB_blue_pin, LOW); }

10. Using setup() A digital pin can either be an output or an input  Output your program determines what the voltage on a pin is (either 0V (LOW or logic 0) or 5V (HIGH or logic 1)  Information is sent out  Input the world outside the microcontroller determines the voltage applied to the pin  Information is taken in const byte ledPin = 13; // LED on digital pin 13 void setup() { // initialize the digital pin as an output: pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); } where can you find out about the commands, etc? http://arduino.cc/en/Reference/Extended pinMode()  sets whether a pin is an input or an output ledPin  byte constant assigned the value of 13 OUTPUT is a macro defined constant Which has the value 1 INPUT is a macro …  ?

11. Digital I/O Example - loop() Algorithm Refine the pseudocode, cont. :  loop forever (use function loop()) If button is not pressed:  voltage on button pin 12 will be _______  make pin 6 voltage low (LED will go off or stay off) If button is pressed:  voltage on button pin 12 will be _______  make pin 6 voltage high (LED will go on or stay on) void loop() { if(digitalRead(SW0_pin) == LOW) { digitalWrite(RGB_blue_pin, HIGH); } else { digitalWrite(RGB_blue_pin, LOW); } high (5V) low (0V)

12. /* Blue_LED_button_cntrl1 - turns on blue LED when SW0 on Experimenter board is pressed, off otherwise */ /* pin assignments */ const byte RGB_blue_pin = 6; const byte SW0_pin = 12; /* configure pins */ void setup() { pinMode(RGB_blue_pin, OUTPUT); pinMode(SW0_pin, INPUT_PULLUP); } /* loop forever */ void loop() { if(digitalRead(SW0_pin) == LOW) digitalWrite(RGB_blue_pin, HIGH); else digitalWrite(RGB_blue_pin, LOW); } Digital I/O Example - Modification Modify Arduino program, so that LED is on until button is pressed, then turns off  How? Pin assignments?  setup()?  Need to turn on the LED!  loop()?  Swap values of second argument in digitalWrite calls

15. Code to Set Up Button Pins Two steps: 1. Make the pin an INPUT pinMode() 2. Turn the pull-up resistor on digitalWrite() a 1 to the pin const byte SW0 = 12; // button SW0 const byte SW1 = 8; // button SW1 const byte SW2 = 7; // button SW2 const byte SW3 = 4; // button SW3 void setup() { pinMode(SW0, INPUT_PULLUP); // make SW0 an // INPUT with a pullup resistor etc. } (See full_test.pde for a more elegant approach to setting up button pins)

16. Boolean Logic And && FalseTrue False TrueFalseTrue Or || FalseTrue False True Exclusive Or (Xor) ^^ FalseTrue False True False

17. Numeric Comparison Operators  ! (not) Changes true to false and false to true , >= Less than, and less than or equal to are different operations Note: !( =  ==, != (not equal) Note: equivalence uses a double ‘=‘, assignment uses a single ‘=‘, be wary = returns the value being assigned  Technically, a = b = c = d = 5; is legal. Why? = is performed right to left, so the d is assigned 5, which returns 5. That 5 is assigned to c

18. Examples float b = 17.0; float d = 3.14; float c = 20.0; float e = 33.0; (b < c); //true (b + c); //true (not zero) ((int)(b/c)); //false (is zero, why?) (b e); //false (b e); // true (b e) || (c < e); //true (b e) || (b + c); //true, why? printf(“%f”, b) && (b + c); //true, why?

19. Flow control These Boolean operations are used along with flow control (or branching) statements to control the flow of a program Decisions TrueFalse

20. Flow control if/if else/else – do this, do that, or do the other switch – choose between a bunch of items for – Do something for some number of times  also commonly referred to as iteration i.e. iterating over a range or iterating over a data set while – For as long as some decision is true, keep doing some stuff do.. while – Do something. At the end, if some thing is true, do it again.

21. Selection Structure Overview Three kinds of selections structures  if (also called, ‘single-selection’) if condition is true Perform action if condition is false, action is skipped, program continues  if/else (also called, ‘double-selection’) if condition is true Perform action else ( if condition is false ) Perform a different action (this will be skipped if condition is true)  switch (also called ‘multiple-selection’) Allows selection among many actions depending on the integral value of a variable or expression

22. Single Selection IF - Flowchart TRUE FALSE Speed > 65 connector flow line decision symbol action symbol Print “You’re speeding” The symbol > is a Relational Operator. The Expression “speed > 65” evaluates to 1 if true, 0 if false

23. if - example int speed = 5; int b = 4; if( speed > 65 ) { // do everything until the closing } printf( “You are speeding!\n” ); } // technically, when one statement is between // the curly braces, the braces are optional. // Even so, don’t omit them

24. Double-Selection IF - Flowchart TRUE Speed > 65 FALSE Print “Over speed limit” Print “Within speed limit”

25. if - example int speed = 5; int b = 4; if( speed > 65 ) { // do everything until the closing } printf( “You are speeding!\n” ); } // technically, when one statement is between // the curly braces, the braces are optional. // Even so, don’t omit them else { // note the indentation. printf( “Speed is within legal limits\n” ); }

26. if - example int speed = 5; int b = 4; if( speed > 65 ) { // do everything until the closing } printf( “You are speeding!\n” ); } // technically, when one statement is between // the curly braces, the braces are optional. // Even so, don’t omit them else if( speed < 65 ) { // note the indentation. printf( “Speed is within legal limits\n” ); } else { printf( “Speed is precisely 65\n” ); }

27. for Loop Structure – Flow Chart initialization T F Terminal decision statement Iteration operation Initializes the loop control variable: ex. a = 0; Tests the loop control variable to see if it is time to quit looping: ex. a < 5; Increments the loop control variable: ex. ++a

28. for Loop Structure – Flow Chart initialization T F Terminal decision statement Iteration operation for( a = 0; a < 5; ++a ) { //for( initialization, termination, iteration) printf( “%d\n”, a ); }

29. while Loop - Flowchart View Statement is executed while condition is true  Note that the condition must first be true in order for the statement to be executed even once statement TRUE FALSE condition

30. while Loop - Flowchart View statement TRUE FALSE condition while( a < 5 ) { printf( “%d\n”, a ); ++a; }
