Arduino Course for Beginners - Open-Source Electronics Platform

Learn how to use Arduino hardware and software in this full course for beginners. Arduino is an easy-to-use, open-source electronics platform. Arduino boards are able to read inputs - light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message - and turn it into an output - activating a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online. You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of instructions to the microcontroller on the board. No hardware is required for to follow along with this course! ✏️ Course developed by Ashish Bansal. 📸 Ashish on Instagram: Tinker with the circuits used in the course : 🔗 custom blink function: 🔗 digitalRead & digitalWrite : 🔗 analogRead : 🔗 analogWrite : ⭐️Course Contents ⭐️ Section 1: Objective of the course (0:00) Course Introduction (01:21) Section 2: Foundation of Electronics (01:36) Electricity (02:10) Static Electricity (03:37) Current Electricity (04:12) Voltage (06:09) Current (08:45) Resistance (10:05) Ohm’s Law (11:55) Ohm’s Law Example (13:46) Resistances in Series and Parallel (26:03) Resistance Color Coding (28:26) Section 3: Intro to Arduino Board (28:46) What is Microcontroller and Microprocessor (31:16) What category Arduino falls into?
