Revision as of 09:26, 27 November 2020

Description

The processor core of Keyestudio V4.0 development board is ATMEGA328P-PU , fully compatible with ARDUINO UNO REV3.
It has 14 digital input/output pins, of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs, 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a USB connection, a power jack, 1 ICSP header, and a reset button.
The built-in ICSP port can burn the firmware for ATMEGA328P-PU directly. We could plug in power by USB wire, DC head and Vin GND pins.

Windows System

Installing Arduino IDE

When getting this control board, we need to install Arduino IDE Enter the website https://www.arduino.cc/， click and

Select the version you want to download, the latest version could be downloaded.

Alternatively, you could select previous release. In this project, we use 1.8.12 version.

Click to view the below page

Click to download an installer of Arduino 1.8.12 version，which needs to be installed manually. When you tap ，a zip file of Arduino 1.8.12 version will be directly downloaded, and you only need to unzip it to finish installation.

Click icon to download Arduino IDE.

Installing driver

Let’s install the driver of keyestudio V4.0 development board. The USB-TTL chip on V4.0 development board adopts CP2102 serial chip. The driver program of this chip is included in Arduino 1.8 version and above, which is convenient. Plug on USB port of board, the computer can recognize the hardware and automatically install the driver of CP2102.

Note: If the version of Arduino IDE you download is below 1.8, you need to download the driver of CP2102.

Download the driver of CP2102: https://fs.keyestudio.com/CP2102-WIN

If install unsuccessfully, or you intend to install manually, open the device manager of computer. Right click Computer----- Properties----- Device Manager.

There is a yellow exclamation mark on the page, which implies installing the driver of CP2102 unsuccessfully. Then we double click the hardware and update the driver.

Click “OK” to enter the following page, click “browse my computer for updated driver software”, find out the installed or downloaded ARDUINO software. As shown below:

There is a DRIVERS folder in Arduino software installed package（）, open driver folder and you can see the driver of CP210X series chips.

We click “Browse”, then find out the driver folder, or you could enter “driver” to search in rectangular box, then click “next”, the driver will be installed successfully. (I place Arduino software folder on the desktop, you could follow my way)

Open device manager, we will find the yellow exclamation mark disappear. The driver of CP2102 is installed successfully.

Arduino IDE Setting

Click icon，open Arduino IDE.

To avoid the errors when uploading the program to the board, you need to select the correct Arduino board that matches the board connected to your computer. Then come back to the Arduino software, you should click Tools→Board, select the board. (as shown below)

Then select the correct COM port (you can see the corresponding COM port after the driver is successfully installed)

Before uploading the program to the board, let’s demonstrate the function of each symbol in the Arduino IDE toolbar.

A- Used to verify whether there is any compiling mistakes or not. B- Used to upload the sketch to your Arduino board. C- Used to create shortcut window of a new sketch. D- Used to directly open an example sketch. E- Used to save the sketch. F- Used to send the serial data received from board to the serial monitor.

Start your first program

Open the file to select Example, choose BLINK from BASIC, as shown below:

Set board and COM port, the corresponding board and COM port are shown on the lower right of IDE.

Click to start compiling the program, check errors.

Click to upload the program, upload successfully.

Upload the program successfully, the onboard LED lights on for 1s, lights off for 1s. Congratulation, you finish the first program.

MAC System

Install Arduino IDE on MAC System

The installation instruction is as same as the chapter 5.1, as shown below:

Download the Driver of CP2102

Arduino IDE Setting

The setting method is as same as the chapter 5.3 except from COM port, as shown below.

1	ICSP (In-Circuit Serial Programming) Header the AVR, an Arduino micro-program header consisting of MOSI, MISO, SCK, RESET, VCC, and GND. It is often called the SPI (serial peripheral interface) and can be considered an "extension" of the output. In fact, slave the output devices to the SPI bus host. When connecting to PC, program the firmware to ATMEGA328P-PU.
2	Power LED Indicator Powering the Arduino, LED on means that your circuit board is correctly powered on. If LED is off, connection is wrong.
	AREF Reference voltage (0-5V) for analog inputs. Used with analogReference(). Configures the reference voltage used for analog input (i.e. the value used as the top of the input range).
	SDA IIC communication pin
	SCL IIC communication pin
	RESET Button You can reset your Arduino board
	USB Connection Arduino board can be powered via USB connector. All you needed to do is connecting the USB port to PC using a USB cable.
	D13 LED There is a built-in LED driven by digital pin 13. When the pin is HIGH value, the LED is on, when the pin is LOW, it's off.
	CP2102 USB to serial chip, can convert the USB signal into serial port signal.
	TX LED Onboard you can find the label: TX (transmit) When Arduino board communicates via serial port, send the message, TX led flashes.
	RX LED Onboard you can find the label: RX(receive ) When Arduino board communicates via serial port, receive the message, RX led flashes.
	Crystal Oscillator How does Arduino calculate time? by using a crystal oscillator. The number printed on the top of the Arduino crystal is 16.000H9H. It tells us that the frequency is 16,000,000 Hertz or 16MHz.
