Abstract

This research paper deals with the development of an arduino-based experimental training kit. The research was motivated by lack of practical training on the use of arduino board which is now replacing the conventional microcontrollers (eg. AT89C51, AT89C52, etc). The system uses Arduino board which contains ATmega328 microcontroller, bread board, Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), Light Dependent Resistor (LDR), GSM module, keypad, DC to DC converter, relays, switches, and several electronic components. The above devices were interfaced to the arduino board, and a program written in arduino programming language was developed and burnt inside the ATmega328 microcontroller. This program controls the operation of the system whenever a particular experiment (demonstration) is required. Displays on LCD, counters, traffic lights using LEDs, etc were done for testing, and the system worked perfectly well.
