Introduction to Arduino

Hello every one today we will start our blog by introducing the Arduino board after that we will show you how to be an excellent programmer. we will start from the simplest project to the most difficult one. we will also use other software which can be used with Arduino such as Visual Basic,Android,LabView...


So as we all know Arduino is divided into to part: a software and a hardware .

For this microcontroller we found a various types such as Arduino Uno, Mega,Leonardo... every single one have it's characteristic but they have also too many thing in common  this picture that i made resume this common part :

Now after seeing the hardware we move on to the most important thing for me witch is the software, Arduino offer a free software witch you can download it from the official  site or from this blog,
Arduino also is an open source and that mean you can found any source code for free you just search for it or you could found it in our blog later on and this is our project.

Now all that we need to relate the Software and the Hardware is a cable type A/B Standard USB 2.0 cable. Use it to connect Arduino Uno, Arduino Mega 2560, or any board with the USB female A port of your computer.

This is all what we need for now to continue our programming projects as i already said we will start from the simplest project to complex one.The next article will be about how to control a LED.
