Learn Electronics with Arduino: An Illustrated Beginner's Guide to Physical Computing (Make: Technology on Your Time)

Description:

About this item:

This book is your introduction to to physical computing with the Arduino microcontroller platform. No prior experience is required, not even an understanding of basic electronics. With color illustrations, easy-to-follow explanations, and step-by-step instructions, the book takes the beginner from building simple circuits on a breadboard to setting up the Arduino IDE and downloading and writing sketches to run on the Arduino. Readers will be introduced to basic electronics theory and programming concepts, as well as to digital and analog inputs and outputs. Throughout the book, debugging practices are highlighted, so novices will know what to do if their circuits or their code doesn't work for the current project and those that they embark on later for themselves. After completing the projects in this book, readers will have a firm basis for building their own projects with the Arduino. Written for absolute beginners with no prior knowledge of electronics or programming Filled with detailed full-color illustrations that make concepts and procedures easy to follow An accessible introduction to microcontrollers and physical computing Step-by-step instructions for projects that teach fundamental skills Includes a variety of Arduino-based projects using digital and analog input and output

shortish but good book

Amazing potential

A.C. · 3 July 2023

Any child showing any mechanical interest would love this. Note: this is only the book, but products are inexpensive. Easy to follow even for the parent that doesn't like this type of thing. You will get into it. Really fun product with amazing potential.

Highly recommend it, especially of you are just starting out.

Easy to read and gives a great overview of the foundational concepts of building and measuring circuits, creating sketches and getting the most out of your Arduino.

Good book, but arrived damaged

J.H. · 9 October 2023

Was the book I wanted, the book itself is well written ( first looks ) but arrived damaged. Significant damage to the spine of the book.

Clear, concise, repetitive for helpful learning.

I like the repetition!! Although it seems a bit redundant, it actually seems to help it stick.This book has been very helpful. Highly recommended beginner/intermediate.

Great all-in-one introduction to DC circuits, digital devices, and coding

S.M.R. · 17 October 2017

This beginnner's guide to the popular Arduino microcontroller family by author-illustrator Jody Culkin and interactive artist Eric Hagan nicely fills a niche in the existing literature between Massimo Banzi and Michael Shiloh's classic "Getting Started with Arduino" and the more advanced books by folks like Simon Monk and Steve Gold. It's a particularly good choice for someone with no electronics background who may need a bit more hand-holding than Banzi and Shiloh can provide in their little book. Concepts are explained in plain language with just the right technical depth to impart understanding and maintain interest without getting bogged down, and the skills developed in the hands-on projects build smoothly on one another to create a compact but robust curriculum in basic electronics.
