The Arduino Family

Arduino makes several different boards, each with different capabilities. In addition, part of being open-source hardware means that others can modify and produce derivatives of Arduino boards that provide even more form factors and functionality. If you’re not sure which one is right for your project

Arduino Uno

The Uno is a great choice for your first Arduino. It's got everything you need to get started, and nothing you don't. It has 14 digital input/output pins (of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs), 6 analog inputs, a USB connection, a power jack, a reset button and more. It contains everything needed to support the microcontroller; simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it with an AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get started.



Arduino Mega (R3)

The Arduino Mega is like the UNO's big brother. It has lots (54!) of digital input/output pins (14 can be used as PWM outputs), 16 analog inputs, a USB connection, a power jack, and a reset button. It contains everything needed to support the microcontroller; simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it with an AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get started. A large number of pins make this board very handy for projects that require a bunch of digital inputs or outputs (like lots of LEDs or buttons).



LilyPad Arduino

This is the LilyPad Arduino mainboard! LilyPad is a wearable e-textile technology developed by Leah Buechley and cooperatively designed by Leah and SparkFun. Each LilyPad was creatively designed with large connecting pads and a flat back to allow them to be sewn into clothing with conductive thread. The LilyPad also has its own family of input, output, power, and sensor boards that are also built specifically for e-textiles. They're even washable!




Arduino Leonardo

The Leonardo is Arduino's first development board to use one microcontroller with a built-in USB. This means that it can be cheaper and simpler. Also, because the board is handling USB directly, code libraries are available which allow the board to emulate a computer keyboard, mouse, and more!

Arduino Nano

 is one type of microcontroller board, and it is designed by Arduino.cc It can be built with a microcontroller like Atmega328. This microcontroller is also used in Arduino UNO. It is a small size board and also flexible with a wide variety of applications.

Interfacing LDR with Arduino

Photo Resistor (LDR)  A Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) is also called a Photoresistor or a cadmium sulfide cell .it is also called a photoconductor. An LDR is a component that has a variable resistance that changes with the light intensity that falls upon it. this allows them to be used in light sensing circuits    There are many applications for Light Dependent Resistors. these include  Lighting switch   the most obvious application for an LDR is to automatically turn on light at a certain light level. An example of this could be an automatic street light or a garden light system Camera shutter control   LDRs can be used to control the shutter speed on a camera. the LDR would be used to measure the light intensity which then adjusts the camera shutter speed to the appropriate level  the zig-zag structure on the LDR is cadmium sulfide track and two dots are metal film contacts How To Use LDR with Arduino : Circuit Diagram : Arduino Program for Above Circuit : int ldr=A0;//Set A0(Anal
