What Exactly Is an Arduino ?Arduino is a Microcontroller board.

Developed by Massimo Banzi and Tom Igoe in 2005.

Arduino is an open source electronics platform based on easy-to-use Hardware and Software.

Useful for anyone making interactive projects using Electronics and Computer Science.

Software Evolution• Software used is IDE ( Integrated

Development Environment )• Evolved from ‘Processing’- a Java based

open source language created by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).• All IDE programs are called sketches.• All C/C++ features are available.• Compiler used is avr - g++

Pulse Width Modulation ( PWM ) PWM is form of Analog output.

Digital +5V == PWM value of 255 Digital 0 == PWM of value 0 PWM can take values from 0 to 255

PWM is used for varying Control mechanism. Example:1) Create multiple colors using an RGB LED

2) To vary the speed of a motor.

PWM can be customised in the programming.
