15 Arduino Uno Breadboard Projects

FREE EBOOK (PDF) – Ultimate Beginners Guide To Arduino

The easiest way for beginners to get started with Arduino is by creating circuits using a solderless breadboard.  These simple projects will teach you the basics of Arduino Uno, electronics and programming.   In this tutorial, you will be creating circuits using the following electronic components:

• LED
• RGB LED
• Temp Sensor
• Pushbutton
• Potentiometer
• Photoresistor
• Servo
• Motor
• Buzzer
• LCD screen

This tutorial is going to allow you to jump right in and start building circuits.  If you need some background on the Arduino Uno board or the tools that are needed, please check out post – Arduino Uno For Beginners.

Getting Started

Before you can start working with Arduino, you need to make sure you have the IDE software installed on your computer.  This program allows you to write, view and upload the code to your Arduino Uno board.  You can download the IDE for free on Arduino’s website.

Once the IDE is installed, you will need to connect your Arduino to your computer.  To do this, plug one end of the USB cable to the Arduino Uno and then the other end of the USB to your computer’s USB port.

Select The Board

Once the board is plugged in, you will need to open the IDE and click on Tools > Board > Arduino Uno to select the board.

Select Serial Port

Next, you have to tell the Arduino which port you are using on your computer.  To select the port, go to Tools > Port and then select the port that says Arduino.

Project Code

To complete the projects in this tutorial, you will need to download the project code which are known as sketches.  A sketch is simply a set of instructions that tells the board what functions it needs to perform.  For some of these projects, we are using open-source code that was released by the good people at Sparkfun and Arduino.  Use the link below to download the zip folder containing the code.

Download Project Code – (ZIP File)

Once the file has been downloaded, you will need to unzip/extract the folder in order to use it.

Troubleshooting

• Make sure your board and serial port is selected in the IDE.  To do this, plug your board in and go to Tools > Board >Arduino to select your board.  Next, go to Tools > Port >Com (Arduino) to select your serial port.
• The long leg of the LED is the (+) positive and the short leg is the (-) negative.  Make sure the correct leg of the LED is in the proper pin of the Arduino or breadboard as directed.
• It can be easy to put a component or jumper into the wrong pin on the Arduino or the breadboard.  Double check the correct pin is being used.
