Test One for Arduino Class

1. What is Arduino? o Complex computer system, which is hard to learn microcontroller board what you can use for controlling and interactive with your environment. o Old microcontroller board you can get it for free and you can use it for controlling and interactive with your environment. o A modern easy to learn inexpensive microcontroller board what you can use for controlling and interactive with your environment. 2. What is the resistor? o An electronic component, which makes noise and has two connection pins. o A two pins electronic component, which resist for electronic current by reducing the voltage based on the amount of current what flows through on it. o It lights up if you connect voltage on the two pins connector. 3. What is the LED? o It has two electronic connection pins, which is polarity sensitive (only will works if is connected in the correct way). It will emit light if is connected in the correct way and abbreviation of Light Emitting Diode. o It has three pins and lights up if you connected in the correct way. Its name is an abbreviation of Light Emitting Diode. o It has two connection pins. If connected correctly it will light up and gets very hot. You can only connect it one way to make it to work. It is abbreviation of Light Emitting Diode. 4. What is the potentiometer? o It has three pins and you need to connect it right way otherwise will not work. It will create noise when it works. It has an axis what you can turn. o It has three pins and works like a resistor but it has a middle pin which can move between the two pins by someone and change it resistant based on the position. o It has two legs and very important how is connected. It will make light when is working.

5. What is the push switch otherwise called button? o It has three legs and important how is connected. Cannot be reversely connected. You can push the middle section and it will connect the circuit. o It normally need two connector pins but it could have four or more, but only connects together the circuit by pushing the middle section (push button). It is not important which site of the pins connected. o It has three legs and it is very important how is connected. It can be activated by pressing the push button.

6. What is the transistor? o It has three pins it is very important how is connected. It could be used as an electronic switch or an amplifier. It has a distinguishable pins name as Emitter, Base and Collector. It could be a NPN or a PNP transistor o It has three legs and lights up if connected correctly. It could be used as an electronic switch or an amplifier. It could be a NPN or a PNP transistor o It has four legs and it is very important how we connect it. It could be used as an electronic switch or an amplifier. It could be a NPN or a PNP transistor 7. What is the buzzer? o It makes a buzzing noise when connected in the circuit with the two pins what it has. o It has two pins and lights up when is working and it makes buzzing noise. o It has four legs and it is very important how is connected. It will make a buzzing noise. 8. What is the four position DIP (Dual Inline Pin) witch? o It has 16 pins and connects this opposite line of pins together with a slider. o It has eight pins, four each site. It connects this opposite pins with a slider. o It has eight pins in one line and connects two together with a slider. 9. What is the breadboard? o The breadboard is a white board with holes on it. It use for storing electronic components. o The breadboard is a test platform where you can build a test circuit for your project or test. It has holes on it where you can push the pins of the electronic components and connects together these parts based on where you pushed it in. o This board is a test platform, which uniquely made for each project. Helps build test circuits. 10. What is the male-to-male jumper wire? o It is a wire to tight electronic components together. It has different color. o It is a wire, which has both end a pin. You can connect together the circuit with this normally colored wire for a test project. o It is wire with different color to show how can be connect together a circuit. 11. What is the 7 segment LED digital display? o It is a lighting device, which lights up with seven different ways. o It is a digital display, which has seven segment plus a dot light. These seven segment can display a numbers or symbols. Each segment works like an individual LED light. o It is a decoration light and has seven different LED.

12. What is the battery pack? o It is a holder, which connects together batteries to supply energy for the microcontroller or other electronic devices. It has a connection cable with a connector on one end. It also has an ON Off switch. o It is a black box where you can hide batteries for storage. o It is a device where you can test batteries. o 13. What is the USB cable used for in the Arduino microcontroller? o It provides power to the microcontroller board and also used for uploading the program to the microcontroller. It also used for communication between the microcontroller and the development computer. o It is provides power to the microcontroller. o It is make it possible to upload the program to the microcontroller. 14. Can be used the battery pack and the USB cable power the microcontroller? o Yes o No 15. Is the Arduino microcontroller easy to program, is it affordable and fun to work with? o Yes o No 16. Where is the microcontrollers microprocessor (Atmel Mega328P)? Put the X next to the line.
