Description

Enough with the courses that show you sketches, and leave you with more questions than answers! With this mega complete course on Arduino from scratch, you will learn everything you need to step into the world of electronics, circuits, and Arduino.How many times has it happened to you? That you search for information on how to create a project with Arduino, and hundreds of resources pop up, but none explain how or why the project works.Or maybe you are new to this world of electronics, and you want to know how to work with Arduino, but can't find a guide to help you learn incrementally.That ends today!I present to you, the best Arduino course in Spanish to date. In this course, we start from scratch. And when I say zero, I really mean from zero.We begin by explaining some fundamentals that are necessary to create projects, such as the operation of the pins on Arduino, operation of electronic components, and even, we break down the sketch that is created whenever we create a new file from the Arduino IDE, in order to analyze it and test what happens if lines of code are missing.In addition to being a course focused on learning to create projects, we also focus on programming, since, although the goal of the course is not for you to become an expert programmer, programming is a fundamental component that will allow you to create increasingly complex projects. It's like an additional toolbox that you need to learn how to use.In many of the projects, we will start by creating projects on the Tinkercad platform, so you won't have to worry about having the necessary hardware to create the projects, and you won't have to worry about burning the circuits, definitely a great option if you are just starting out.Throughout the course, we will create multiple projects that will turn you into a maker in every sense of the word, from simple ones to more complex ones.In total, we will create more than 15 Projects with Arduino, all explained step by step.Some of the topics we will cover in the course are:Programming basics with ArduinoDecision statementsDigital pinsAnalog pinsUsing sensorsUsing electronic componentsArraysMatricesLEDsPotentiometersLoopsPhotoresistorsUsing Tinkercad to create simulationsand a long etc.What are you waiting for to become a maker with Arduino? I'll see you in the course.
