What is Galileo? * How to make a LED blink 1. What is a microcontroller? A microcontroller (sometimes abbreviated µC, uC or MCU) is a small computer on a single integrated circuit containing a processor core, memory, and programmable input/output peripherals. Program memory in the form of NOR flash or OTP ROM is also often included on chip, as well as a typically small amount of RAM. Microcontrollers are design… text/html 2020-02-14T10:01:56+03:00 http://ocw.cs.pub.ro/courses/pm/galileo/2?rev=1581667316&do=diff Objectives Today's objectives are getting used to the basic functions of your Arduino Uno. The following will be covered: * Serial communication * Digital input * Analog input * Plotting sensor data * Text LCD 1. Serial communication Used for communication between the Arduino board and a computer or other devices. All Arduino boards have at least one serial port (also known as a UART or USART): Serial. It communicates on digital pins 0 (RX) and 1 (TX) as well as with the computer v… text/html 2020-02-14T10:01:56+03:00 http://ocw.cs.pub.ro/courses/pm/galileo/3?rev=1581667316&do=diff Objectives * Discover what EKG is and its significance as a medical application * Introduce the SHIELD-EKG-EMG board from Olimex * Learn how to do basic Digital Signal Processing Signals So far we've examined analog values, voltages measured at pins A0-A7 of the microcontroller. If we measure multiple times the same voltage we obtain a range of values called a “signal”. A signal contains information about the variation in time of the measured quantity. We should take a very short look …
