Introduction to Arduino
Let’s start by understanding what Arduino is and what it can do for you as a beginner in electronics.
Installing the Arduino IDE
Before you can start programming Arduino, you need to install the Arduino IDE — the official development environment.
Blink: Your First Arduino Project
Let's build your first real Arduino project — make an LED blink!
Understanding Arduino Code Structure
Learn how Arduino code is structured and how setup() and loop() work together.
Working with Digital Output
Learn how to control components like LEDs, buzzers, and relays using digital pins.
Working with Digital Input
Learn how to use buttons and switches with Arduino and respond to user input.
Working with Analog Input
Learn how to read variable values from sensors using analog pins.
Working with Analog Output (PWM)
Use analogWrite() to control brightness, speed, and more with Pulse Width Modulation.

About Lesson
A digital output is a pin that sends only two possible signals:
🔹 HIGH — 5V (ON)
🔹 LOW — 0V (OFF)
You can use digital output to control many components, like:
– LEDs
– Buzzers
– Relays
– Transistors
– Digital displays
Example:
digitalWrite(5, HIGH); // Turns ON device on pin 5
digitalWrite(5, LOW); // Turns it OFF
🧠 When you call pinMode(5, OUTPUT)
, it tells the board you want to send voltage out through pin 5.
✅ Digital output is simple but powerful — you’re already using it in the Blink project!
