This will be a series of labs designed to get the new to intermediate electronic hobbyist familiar with the basics of embedded systems. Attendees will work with development boards such as the Arduino UNO, PSoc 4 Pioneer, and Gadget Labs Papilio, utilizing the “C” and HDL languages, to build basic digital components used in everyday modern electronics. We will be using your laptops with low cost development boards, breadboards, resistors, leds, buttons, and several other active and passive components to communicate between the physical and digital worlds. This First Lab will use Arduino Uno. Please bring your laptop, Arduino with the IDE loaded and functional to the ADX Maker Space Monday.
