Week 6 - Microcontrollers, Digital Input/Output
=== Week 6 - Microcontrollers, Digital Input/Output ===
* I am sorry for the late notice, but... NOTE: LECTURE IS CANCELED TONIGHT! In lieu of lecture, Steph will be in the electronics lab (VAF 106) from 5-6pm to give a workshop on soldering, if . If you want to come get bring your freeduino kit she can help finishing your Freeduino assembly. Otherwise, we will see give you in class next week. I am sorry for the late notice but hope that you will enjoy the time offfinish putting it together.  Great work on your midterms last week., I was very impressed by the thought and effort that went into them! ** FYI: Tim and I will be attending the opening of ''and the world is ours...'' at compactspace gallery in LA, from 6-9pm. [http://www.compactspace.com/] All are invited to attend. 
* Homework for next week: Read pages 1-42 of "Getting Started With Arduino" by Massimo Banzi. This introduces the Arduino microcontroller, a brief bit of what it does, and also describes your first basic activity with the Arduino, writing and uploading the basic LED blinking program.
** NOTE: I will use "Arduino" and "Freeduino" interchangeably: they are nearly identical. The official Arduino is manufactured by one particular group in Italy, the Freeduino is one of many clones of the Arduino made by a company here in the US. Both use the same programming environment and have the same capabilities, so we don't really have to worry about the distinction.
