The boards come fitted with sets of digital and analog input/output (I/O) pins that can be interfaced to several expansion boards or breadboards (shields) and other circuits. Arduino board designs use a variety of microprocessors and controllers. These Arduino boards are available both in preassembled form or as do-it-yourself (DIY) kits. But before we get into that, let’s take a look at what is an Arduino?Īn Arduino is basically a single board microcontroller that is used for building digital devices and interactive objects that can sense and control objects in the physical and digital world.
