The Arduino board is selected according to the project you want to create.
If you are a beginner and want to learn to create simple electronic projects and robots with limited functionality, you can choose the Arduino UNO board. It is an ideal choice for developing skills in electronics, as it is easy to use, in addition to being low cost.
If you want to create small size electronic projects such as remote controls, or small robots. You can use the Arduino nano, Arduino Micro, or LilyPad Arduino Board.
If you want to create large electronic projects that require a large number of out/in puts. You can use the Arduino Mega (R3).
If you want to create electronic projects that have multiple functions, and do many tasks require a faster processor, require a large number of ports. You can use the Arduino Due or Arduino Zero
Components of Arduino board:
Most of the similar components of Arduino board are as follows:
- Microcontroller
- Analog input pins
- Digital pins
- Crystal oscillator.
- USB interface chip.
- voltage regulator.
- big capacitor (20-100 uF).
- Small capacitor (0.1-1.0 uF) .
- Timing Crystal.
- Communication Lines.
- USB connector.
- Power port.
- Reset switch.
- Leds.
How to programme Arduino board? We use Arduino Software (IDE) to programme The Arduino board, so that the Arduino Software is installed on the computer and the Arduino driver. Then we write the code using the C language, or C++, then we pass the code to the Arduino board by pressing the transfer button in the Arduino program.
