February Freeduino Frenzy is a workshop that will happen on Feb 13. It will consist of several experiments that will teach the student how to do basic circuits and coding on the Arduino platform. Some of the projects will closely follow the Spring Training from the Spring of '10.

Part 1 - Digital I/O

Load Arduino software and set up breadboard

Blinky Light

Cylon LEDs

TriColor LED fun (PWM)

Input Switch

Intermission

Part 2 - Analog Sensors

Set up LCD

Voltage Divider (Linear slide pot)

CDS Light Sensor

Pressure sensor with antistatic foam

DS1820 or DS1620 Temp sensor ?
