Playing a Melody Using the Tone() function in Arduino
In this Arduino tutorial we’ll learn how to execute the tone() command for producing musical notes. The configuration will play a tiny musical tone that could be familiar to you. Required Hardware for the Project Arduino BoardLoud speaker – 8 Ohm 1 inchResistor – 100 ohmsHook-up wires Procedure: It’s rather too straightforward and […]
ATmega32, Pinouts Explained
The Atmel AVR Atmega32 is a low power CMOS based microcontroller chip manufactured on the AVR advanced RISC architecture. It is featured for carrying out technologically powerful instructions within each of its clock cycles. The chip is also equipped with the capability of achieving throughputs rated at 1MIPS per MHz enabling the system manager to enforce […]

Fading an LED ON/OFF – Arduino Basics
In this post I have explained a basic Arduino function where I have explained the process of fading an LED ON/OFF through some basic code implementations. Creating a Fading Effect We see how to use an analogwrite() function in order to implement a fading ON/OFF of an LED. The function incorporates PWM pulses across a […]
Converting Analogue to Digital (Analogue Read Serial) – Arduino Basics
In this Arduino basics I have explained the code implementation procedure wherein an external analogue signal is fed to the Arduino analogue input and translated or converted into a correspondingly proportionate digital readout. Here we employ a variable resistance in the form of a pot as the analogue signal source. Analog Read Serial In this […]
