I'm 21 and just now learning what Arduino even is. I feel like a cave man.

[vinolicam]

Bravo! exactly what i was looking for! no chitchat, just information with high quality presentation!

Tip: The Analogue pins can also be configured as digital pins as far as I remember.

Take a look at the teensies. They're faster more memory and just as compatible. I got tired of running out of Ram with my Nanos and moved to a Teensy 3.2 years ago and never looked back. They also have great display Library support our blazing-fast for something like an ili9488 and an ili9341

Nice overview... but disappointed you said nothing about price ranges.

Fantastic comparison vid! Told me most of what I needed to know for some parts I ordered. Thanks!

It's a shame that some folks can't get past how you pronounce things or the lab coat or that a three-year-old video is outdated. This material is a good introduction to the plethora of Arduino boards. Start here and then go to some similar videos to learn the changes in a market where things change every 3 months or so.

Me clicking the video: this is gonna be click bait isn't it

*Sees the guy has. a bow tie*

Me: hvm I trust him... Bow ties are cool

I guess analog inputs can also be used as digital I/O's.

where is the nano XD, it's still a arduino board

[DarrynJones]

Thanks for making this video, it was super informative and very handy for me. Forget the haters in the comments, I thought it was great!

To use a SunFounder electronics learning kit, we ended up using a SunFounder Arduino-compatible UNO R3.

I love learning about electronics from 90s era Matt Damon!

Arduino uno has 20 digital inputs/output not 14, the 5 analog pin can be used just like the digital i/o

[tooltiptinkerer]

I can understand what something does if people tell me what to plug into what and which pins go where, but outside of that Arduino is all Greek to me. And, by extension, everything you said in this video. The only reliable piece of information I retained was that mixing and matching voltages, for whatever reason, breaks everything.

Fantastic.... !!! It would be very useful (for me) a new board with Arduino nano layout (same pin, same i/o number, same measures) but using ATMEGA2560 chip, I know that we 'lost' all 54 inputs for example and we will have only 13 available, but it is a great thing to update existing boards with nano layout but with no more memory to develop new features (with no new pcb rebuild)

I took your Udemy course. Super stoked to see you working for Sparkfun, and love the scientist getup

4:16 The usb joystick mouse. IS there a tutorial?

[freakqnc]

Short of using and ESP8266 and a relay board, how can one build a simple arduino-based switch on/off that would work via wifi is the ESP8266 the only option at this time? I am amazed there's still isn't an affordable to way to have a controller that could be added to standard home light switches and wall plugs so that they could be accessed via home wifi LAN aggregating them so that could be all controlled within a single UI.

sir where we can find Arduino mega 2560 port D 4, 5, 6 pin no. Actually, I have to connect colour sensor by Atmel studio .thanks in advance
