<p>Although you can buy a wide range of shields for Arduino, making your own will not only save you money, it will give you more flexibility and control of your designs. This book shows you how to connect sensors and other devices to your Arduino inputs and outputs using basic components like resistors, diodes, transistors, and op-amps. All of the components used in this book can be purchased cheaply on eBay or Amazon, as well as other electronics outlets. Dozens of generalized circuits that you can modify for your needs are shown, complete with the necessary equations to select the proper component values for your needs. Heavy emphasis is placed on connecting sensors not originally designed for Arduinos to the analog inputs, as well as connecting signals other than 5 volts to digital inputs. Connecting heavy loads to the outputs is also discussed. Protecting your Arduino is the topic of one chapter, and specific tips for doing this are given for individual circuits throughout the book. This is a practical guide to designing electronic circuits to connect to your Arduino. Although it will be helpful if you already have a basic knowledge of electronics, this book provides a basic background, like reading schematics and choosing components.</p>

<p>This book is about controlling motors using Arduinos (called Genuinos outside the United States). I start out with simple direct current (DC) motors, covering turning them on and off, controlling their speed, and reversing direction. I then get into more complicated motors. I discuss two types of stepper motors, a type of precision motor that can be used for detailed control of devices like 3D printers, CNC routers, robot arms, etc. I also discuss servo motors, which are useful for setting positions, and brushless motors, which are good for high speeds like you might need for drone or model plane propellers, fans, model boat propellers, high-speed model cars, and any other application that requires high speeds. This book covers both electronics and programming, so are be electronic schematics and Arduino sketches. I assume that the reader is already familiar with the basics of Arduinos, such as how to install the IDE and load sketches, so I do not go into details on topics like that. I use Arduino Uno as the basis for designs in this book, but other models will work for most of the applications discussed in this book. In the last chapter, I provide several links to locations where you can download the sketches in this book to save you the trouble of typing them.</p>
