7. What is Arduino Nano


The Arduino Nano is a microcontroller. 

The Arduino Nano is Arduino’s classic breadboard friendly designed board with smallest dimensions.

The Arduino Nano comes with pin headers that allow for an easy attachment onto a breadboard and features a mini-B USB connector.

It is an intelligent development board designed for building faster prototypes with the smallest dimension.

Oldest member of Nano family.

Enough interface for breadboard friendly applications

Heart – Atmega328 microcontroller

Clocked at a frequency of 16MHZ

Same functionalities as the Arduino Duemilanove.

6.6 LED

Before going into the details of LED (Light Emitting Diode), let us understand electrical transducers and diode.  Electrical Transducer: An electronic device that converts energy from one form to another is called transducer. This process is called transduction. An input transducer takes in physical energy and converts it into an electrical energy. Example: Microphone Takes in physical sound waves and converts into an electrical signal that can be transferred through wires. An output transducer or an actuator takes in electrical signal and converts them into other forms of energy. Example: Lamp  Converts electricity into light.  Motor converts electricity into motion.  This transducer works to convert a form of energy (Heat, light or sound) into an electrical signal (Frequency, current and voltage). DIODE: A diode is a two terminal electric component that conducts electricity primarily in one direction. It has high resistance on one end and low resi...

6.1 Basics of Physics & Electronics

Description: Recapitulating the basics of the Physics and Electronics are essential to get a clear picture of the upcoming blogs. Physics: The term ‘Physics’ comes from the root word ‘Phys’ meaning nature and natural order. Physics is the study of physical properties. It involves the study of everything in physical existence from smallest subatomic particles to the entire universe. Study of natural forces refers to the study of heat, light, sound, pressure, electricity etc. Physics can be broadly classified as: Mechanics: This focuses on the behavior of object and the forces that act upon them. Thermodynamics: Study of heat, temperature and energy. Optics: Study of light waves. Acoustics: Study of sound waves Electro-magnetism: Study of electric and magnetic forces. ATOM The term ATOM comes from the Greek word “ATOMOS” meaning “Indivisible”,  but the basic idea that matter is made up of tiny indivisible particles is an old idea that appeared in many ancient ...
