2 Resistors You don t necessarily need to know about resistors and how to read them. For this item, hunt through your kit until you find the resistor with brown-blackorange-gold bands. However, you may like to learn about resistors and how to read them. Generally, resistors are used to reduce the voltage in a particular part of a circuit. Since the Arduino board pushes out 5V and the average LED is rated at 1.7V, you will nearly always see a resistor connected to an LED. Light Sensors or Light Dependent Resistors (LDR) or photocells Unfortunately, this has three names and they are used interchangeably. Perhaps the most accurate is the Light Dependent Resistors (LDR) as it is a component that changes its resistance depending on light levels. Then, due to ohm's law, V = IR, the voltage will change as light levels change and we can use these changing voltage values in our code. The resistance range of our LDR is 200KΩ (dark) to 10KΩ (10 lux brightness); the higher the brightness, the lower the resistance and higher the voltage. The problem for us is that we will be using the LDR where it is bright but not too bright. Even in 'not too bright', the resistance will probably be 10KΩ (the top of the range) and 5V (the top of the range). To fix this, we need to add a pull-down resistor into the circuit, which will add a 10KΩ buffer. This will add some resistance so that we are not reading 5V (theoretically super-bright) all the time, even in a dimly lit room. If we still get inaccurate readings, then we could add further resistance, but we would need to calculate these using the "Axel Benz" formula. Don't worry, you wont have to do that. Want to know more? FLOATING PINS, PULL-UP RESISTORS AND ARDUINO Pins used: GND, GND, 5V, 11, A0 The buzzer will work from outputting a HIGH(5V) or on and LOW (0V) or off signal through pin 11. There is a mini-circuit from 5V to LDR to A0 to resistor to GND. The A0 is an analog pin. It makes sense that the LDR is plugged in here, as the signal it will give is analog. While the main function of the analog pins for most Arduino users is to read analog sensors, the analog pins also have all the functionality of general purpose input/output (GPIO) pins (the same as digital pins 0-13). Therefore, the analog pins can be used identically to the digital pins, with digitalread() and digitalwrite(). The greater the intensity of light, the greater the corresponding voltage from the LDR will be. Since the LDR gives out an analog voltage, it is connected to the analog input pin on the Arduino. The Arduino, with its built-in ADC (analog-to-digital converter), then converts the analog voltage (from 0-5V) into a digital value in the range of (0-1023). It's this digital value the we test for in the code. The Circuit: Physical Computing and Embedded Sytems Page 2

Algorithms: Sequence, selection and iteration Code structure, values and functions: int [Data Types] To store a value in code, we use variables. There are many kinds of values or types of data that we may want to store. Integers are your primary data-type for number storage From < bool [Data Types] A bool holds one of two values, true or false. (Each bool variable occupies one byte of memory.) From < pinmode() [Digital I/O] Configures the specified pin to behave either as an input or an output pinmode(pin, mode) pin: the number of the pin whose mode you wish to set mode: INPUT, OUTPUT, or INPUT_PULLUP. (see the (digital pins) page for a more complete description of the functionality.) From < Physical Computing and Embedded Sytems Page 4

5 Serial.begin() Sets the data rate in bits per second (baud) for serial data transmission. For communicating with the computer, use one of th ese rates: 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 14400, 19200, 28800, 38400, 57600, or You can, however, specify other rates - for example, to communicate over pins 0 and 1 with a component that requires a particular baud rate. An optional second argument configures the data, parity, and stop bits. The default is 8 data bits, no parity, one stop bit. Serial.begin(speed) Serial.begin(speed, config) speed: in bits per second (baud) - long config: sets data, parity, and stop bits. Valid values are : From < Serial.println() Prints data to the serial port as human-readable ASCII text followed by a carriage return character (ASCII 13, or '\r') and a newline character (ASCII 10, or '\n'). This command takes the same forms as Serial.print(). Serial.println(val) Serial.println(val, format) val: the value to print - any data type format: specifies the number base (for integral data types) or number of decimal places (for floating point types) Returns size_t (long): println() returns the number of bytes written, though reading that number is optional From < analogread() [Analog I/O] Reads the value from the specified analog pin. The Arduino board contains a 6 channel (7 channels on MKR boards, 8 on the Min i Physical Computing and Embedded Sytems Page 5

6 and Nano, 16 on the Mega), 10-bit analog to digital converter. This means that it will map input voltages between 0 and 5 volts into integer values between 0 and This yields a resolution between readings of: 5 volts / 1024 units or,.0049 volts (4.9 mv ) per unit. The input range and resolution can be changed using analogreference(). It takes about 100 microseconds ( s) to read an analog input, so the maximum reading rate is about 10,000 times a secon d. analogread(pin) pin: the number of the analog input pin to read from (0 to 5 on most boards, 0 to 6 on MKR boards, 0 to 7 on the Mini and Nano, 0 to 15 on the Mega) Returns int(0 to 1023) From < analogwrite() [Analog I/O] Writes an analog value (PWM wave) to a pin. Can be used to light a LED at varying brightnesses or drive a motor at various speeds. After a call to analogwrite(), the pin will generate a steady square wave of the specified duty cycle until the next call to analogwrite() (or a call to digitalread() or digitalwrite()) on the same pin. The frequency of the PWM signal on most pins is approximately 490 Hz. On the Uno and similar boards, pins 5 and 6 have a frequency of approximately 980 Hz. On most Arduino boards (those with the ATmega168 or ATmega328P), this function works on pins 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, and 11. You do not need to call pinmode() to set the pin as an output before calling analogwrite(). The analogwrite function has nothing to do with the analog pins or the analogread function. analogwrite(pin, value) pin: the pin to write to. Allowed data types: int. value: the duty cycle: between 0 (always off) and 255 (always on). Allowed data types: int From < Physical Computing and Embedded Sytems Page 6

7 delay() [Time] Pauses the program for the amount of time (in milliseconds) specified as parameter. (There are 1000 milliseconds in a second. ) delay(ms) ms: the number of milliseconds to pause (unsigned long) From < > If else [Control Structure] The if statement checks for a condition and executes the proceeding statement or set of statements if the condition is 'true'. if (condition) { //statement(s) condition: a boolean expression i.e., can be true or false The statements being evaluated inside the parentheses require the use of one or more operators shown below. Comparison Operators: x == y (x is equal to y) x!= y (x is not equal to y) x < y (x is less than y) x > y (x is greater than y) x <= y (x is less than or equal to y) x >= y (x is greater than or equal to y) From < while [Control Structure] A while loop will loop continuously, and infinitely, until the expression inside the parenthesis, () becomes false. Something must change the tested variable, or the while loop will never exit. This could be in your code, such as an incremented variable, o r an Physical Computing and Embedded Sytems Page 7

8 external condition, such as testing a sensor. while(condition){ // statement(s) The condition is a boolean expression that evaluates to true or false. Example Code var = 0; while(var < 200){ // do something repetitive 200 times var++; From < bool Datatype This code uses this datatype for the first time. It is used to keep the alarm in the 'off' state [while(alarmtriggered == false)] Serial.begin() This will connect us to the serial monitor in the Aduino IDE. Serial.println() This will print to the serial monitor. In the code it is used to give us idea of the digital value coming from the LDR [Serial.println(analogRead(LDR));]. The Arduino, with its built-in ADC (analog-to-digital converter), then converts the analog voltage (from 0-5V) into a digital value in the range of (0-1023). The alarm is triggered by anything greater than 50 [if(analogread(ldr) > 50)], so if the alarm is not working (such as the alarm always goes off, even in complete darkness), then you can see if the values from the LDR is the problem. Ie. Maybe they are always greater than 50. If this is the case, then try setting a higher value and keep tuning the value until the alarm goes off in 'morning light'. Want more? USE SERIAL.PRINT() TO DISPLAY ARDUINO OUTPUT ON YOUR COMPUTER MONITOR: PART 1 USE SERIAL.PRINT() TO DISPLAY ARDUINO OUTPUT ON YOUR COMPUTER MONITOR: PART 2 while You can use while() statements in a sketch to repeat instructions, as long as (while) a given condition is true. The condition is always tested before the code in the while() statement is executed. For example, while ( temperature > 30 ) will test to determine if the value of temperature is greater than 30. You can use any comparison operator within the parentheses to create the condition. In contrast to while, the do-while() structure places the test after the code within the dowhile statement is executed. In our code, the while is used to check light levels and trigger the alarm while the alarm has not already been triggered: [ while(alarmtriggered == false)]. Note the use of ==. The double equal signs are used when testing conditions If The if is used to test light levels and when they are above the digital value of 50, the alarm is triggered: [if(analogread(ldr) > 50)] alarmtrigger() Function Previously, we have been using pre-defined functions, such as digitalwrite() etc. Now we are writing our own and this is what the pre-defined ones look like, behind the scenes. For a start, it is written after the void loop() function because we don t need it to loop continuously. The first line is: void alarmtrigger(int i) { This means that our function, called 'alarmtrigger' will not return or pass a value out of the function (void). Within the brackets, int i, is where we declare a Physical Computing and Embedded Sytems Page 8

9 variable to hold the value of an integer that we are passing to our function. In this case we are telling the function how many times to beep our alarm [alarmtrigger(15)]. So the integer value 15 is passed to the i integer variable and the function knows that i=15. INSTRUCTIONS 1. Save the sketch (code) below and then open in the Arduino IDE (File>Open..)
